I believe that when printing with Piezography Jon recommends setting the
monitor at 80 cdm2 and a color temperature of 5000A.  No doubt one can edit
such settings based upon results and environment.

Jordan - I have a CG243W that I'm very pleased with.  But it's hard to keep
up with what models are still being made, recent innovations, etc., so I
generally consult with Jeff Deeken, who is a regional account manager at
Eizo.  He's at  jeffrey.deeken@..., and is very smart and helpful.

I didn't bother getting a self-calibrating monitor because I work with three
different units depending on whether I'm working in my studio or on
location.  As far as brightness is concerned, I also do a lot of black and
white printing, and set the monitor for 90 cdm2.

Best,
Stephen Petegorsky
