Yeah ... I have adjusted my monitor to reflect on what actually gets printed. Cause it might look great on the monitor, but not on print. I have to deal with so many things when adjusting the publication, like on what paper are we printing this week. With heavier paper, i can get fancy with color, but w/ regular newsprint the colors don't quite mix well together.
