  How to calibrate a Dream color

  Posted by Cristina Perez on November 14, 2011 at 3:57 pm

  Hi!!
  does anybody knows how to calibrate a DreamColor?
  I´ve been working with this monitor for a year and now each time I turn on it shows me a message “Calibrate monitor for better color performance”
  I´m just finishing a long work and I think this is the better moment to recalibrate it.

  Can anybody help me?

  What is the better probe?

  Thanks a lot!

  HP has a probe that is for the Dreamcolor, I thin it is a re-badged X-Rite i1 and it plugs into the Dreamcolor. This calibration route is mostly for use as a computer display (i.e. Photoshop, etc.) and is not just a basic calibration.
