The ADOBE GAMMA dialog box is shown to the
right. You can then click on either STEP BY STEP
WIZARD or you can choose CONTROL PANEL.
Click on the choice that is: CONTROL PANEL.
Then click NEXT
Drag the slider bar (see red-colored arrows) back
and forth until you can just barely make out
different black & gray squares. If, when you drag
this slider bar back and forth you do not see any
change on your monitor screen, it is because your
video card is not compatible with Adobe
PhotoShop. You will not be able to perform a
correct calibration on your computer until you
install a compatible video card. ColorBAT currently recommends the ATI Radeon 9000 series, AGP video
cards. Of course, there are others that will work just as well… and many that will not work at all.
In the image to the right there is a red-colored arrow pointing to the GAMMA adjustment. Be sure that you
get this set correctly. If you do not set this adjustment correctly, you will loose the ability to see detail in the
shadows and/or the highlights on your
monitor.
Set the GAMMA (DESIRED) to
Macintosh Default which will set 1.80
gamma. Set the White Point Hardware to
6500K (daylight).
After you have made a few test prints,
you may have to come back to the
gamma slider bar setting and make a
fine-tuning adjustment in it in order to
better obtain a match between the image
on the monitor screen and the image
from the printer. When you go to close
this window, you will be given an
opportunity to SAVE the settings that
you have just made. Notice that I have
SAVED my settings as” DCN_Oct1201”.
Do NOT save them over a profile that is
already in the folder. Always use a NEW
name to save your settings.
