Spyder2Pro calibrate multiple monitors

srmorris2

We have a total of 5 computers in our studio and we want to be able to calibrate them all to our labs color. Our main monitor is calibrated to that and now we need to get the rest of them to. Is there a way to make a profile on one computer and then have it match on the other computers. Three of the others are laptop (2xp on osx) and the last is a laptop hooked up to a projector. (the projector is to be calibrated). Also our computer that is calibrated correctly is Windows xp. Thanks!

I would doubt it, though that is a noble goal.
Having the laptops are where the challenges reside. Laptops are very difficult to calibrate accurately anyway, generally the screens are of moderate quality and a user has limits on physically adjusting the screen. The best advice I could give is to calibrate the screens in the same place in the studio so the lighting is consistent. Keep them tilted at the same angle too. Make sure your luminosity settings are consistent as well.

Color Eyes Display Pro software will allow you to specifically match two monitors connected to the same graphics card, but your situation is a bit different.
