Simple color matching between your monitor and photo prints

EIZO EasyPIX Software

EX1 Color Sensor

Monitors Match Prints

Even with a high-quality monitor, color mismatch with photo prints can occur unless it is profiled correctly. EIZO EasyPIX allows you to do just that even if you don’t have any expertise in color management.

With EIZO EasyPIX software and the EX1 color sensor, you can quickly and easily make a color proﬁle of your monitor’s settings. Just use the software to match your monitor’s color and brightness to that of your photo paper, and then create the proﬁle with the EX1 sensor.

Once you’ve created a proﬁle for your monitor, you can share it with your retouching software. The color of your photo prints will match those displayed on your monitor.
