I have been doing a lot of reading on how to do this – but I’m very confused. I have an Epson 3200 Perfection scanner, a LaCie Monitor with a Blue Vision colorimeter and an Epson Stylus Photo printer. I also have Monaco EZ Color. I have a monitor profile set up using the Blue Vision colorimeter and profiles for my scanner and printer set up using Monaco. Could someone tell me exactly how to use these profiles (where to specify them) so that I see on the monitor what I scan – and print what I see on the monitor. I’m fairly new to this. I wish there was a manual for the three pieces of hardware to tell me exactly how to do this – but, of course, there isn’t. Perhaps someone who reads this posting will have a setup similar to mine and can help. Thanks………..

What does it mean to put both prints into the Adobe 1998 print space? Wher do I designate this? Gotta remember, I’m very new at this. Thanks again………
