Can I calibrate ColorEdge monitors with non-EIZO calibration sensors such as the Eye-One series, Spyder or others?

Yes, these non-EIZO calibration sensors are available. However, the software bundled with these sensor packages cannot control the LUT built into ColorEdge monitors and thereby provide lower calibration performance compared withColorNavigator.
