The new range of Calibrite display devices (which replaced the X-rite devices) have an ability to cope with the much brighter displays that some may use in HDR environments (up to 10,000cd/m3). I can't see many, outside specific cinema applications, wanting to edit images in front of a display exceeding 1000cd/m3 capability of the basic unit though.  As an example I have my displays set to 100-120cd/m3 depending on particular setting.

@lloyd_pdx IF you have an accurate ICC output device profile, then using "proof setup/ custom" can help with printed image onscreen preview - especially if the user checks "Simulate ink black", but unfortunately checking "Simulate Paper Color" often takes the image white in an unexpected direction.

Adjusting the display white calibration target can help get a better paper white preview on screen.

 

I hope this helps

Even though this thread is 3 years old, it's helping me (I think) address a confusing print issue. I've long had a workable knowledge of profiles, calibration and color management - but…all prints are dark and/or muddy regardless of paper choice (and related icc profile.)

By @lloyd_pdx

 

You mentioned Proof Setup…so you’ve created a custom proof setup preset (using a profile that represents your paper, ink, and other printing conditions), and when you enable View > Proof Colors with your Proof Setup preset applied, how much different does that look from having Proof Colors disabled, and how far is it from how the print looks?

 

Also, just curious, what range of papers are you trying and on which printer?
