Dell U2715H 27-Inch Widescreen IPS LED Monitor

Product Information

A: If, after you create and save a monitor profile in DUCCS, you then make physical changes to the OSD settings for brightness, contrast or color cast, you will be invalidating the profile that you created.

A: One benefit of the Advanced mode is the ability to save information at any point in the workflow.Our high contrast test photos had plenty of detail in both the light and dark areas of each image, and colours were rich and vivid. A: If you are using two displays, setting them to the same luminance level is critical if you wish to see similar color results. Conversely, when you have the OSD open, the DUCCS software will not see the USB communication from the display to the computer. It has a wide range of inputs, including dual-link DVI, HDMI, two DisplayPorts (one input and one output, so you can daisy-chain more than one monitor off a single DisplayPort), a mini-DisplayPort, a four-port USB3 hub, a headphone jack and a 9-in-1 card reader on the side of the bezel. A: In the workflow selector across the bottom of the DUCCS software, you can jump between any of the steps in the workflow as required.

This is in line with Dell’s claimed figure of 1000:1 and it’s the highest ratio we’ve seen from an IPS monitor.A: The software does have the ability to be used for printer and scanner profiling, but you must have an X-Rite spectrophotometer that is connected to use those features.

Graphics professionals and color critical users find many industry specific option choices available in this mode. A: Although we would like it if you owned more than one DELL branded display, you can use the DUCCS software with a non-DELL display.A: The Basic mode sets correct settings for color temperature, luminance, and contrast, then display the colors that are needed to create the International Color Consortium (ICC) profile. Owners of X-Rite i1PRO2 and i1Pro spectrophotometers can also use this program for display calibration. You find links to technical resources on the home page of the program, and a context sensitive help menu option in the program. Even facing the screen almost side-on produced only the smallest alteration in the level of contrast, although we found its vertical viewing angles were slightly narrower.
