Alba Maximus has invested substantial time and expense ensuring that our professional monitors are colour and luminosity calibrated to match what is produced from our printers with a 95% accuracy. We have produced our own ICC profiles to match each paper type we use to ensure this accuracy, and we feel that we would like to share this knowledge, so you don't have to spend the time and money to learn this.

How many times have you sent your images for print, and they have come back under or over exposed or had a grey washed out look? Having used many of the top printing labs I basically could not get the image print quality that I desired. This was most often because the images sent for print are not manually checked by the printing company for accuracy of colour and luminance before print.

At Alba Maximus we check every image before print and will adjust the image for best quality of print, if as sometimes happens there are large adjustments needed, we will contact the you before we print.

Most monitors are back light and when editing images this leads to the image printing too dark. Also, monitors must be colour calibrated with professional devices to give you accuracy, you could use a pre-calibrated monitor which are very expensive to give the colour accuracy. You also must adjust the luminosity / brightness to match your printer output.
