We are having the same brightnes problems with LaCie electron22blue
monitors. We are calibrating them with an X-Rite DTP 92 and X-Rite's
Colorshop. Even after calibration they are significantly brighter than our
previous Sony monitors and our photos are printing too dark. The only thing
that's changed is the monitors. Help!
