DU graphic designers - do you use color calibration software?
If so, which? I've been eyeballing Spyder2 suite, which also ensures proper calibration with the printer. Owning an archival printer myself, accurate color from screen to pricey paper wouldn't come amiss...

Thx!

2. No, I use the process color manual and Pantone chips. I never trust what is
on my screen. But then I send files out to be printed, so I don't have to calibrate with a printer. For comping purposes we have a color laser and we just know to supply color chips for reference.

3. Nope, I just don't give a fuck.
I'm hardcore like that.
