Способ 1: Стандартное средство ОС
Основной метод настройки экрана монитора в Windows 11 будет оптимальным практически для всех пользователей, поскольку подразумевает использование только системного средства. В нем вы увидите наглядные инструкции и параметры, позволяющие изменить передачу цветов, их баланс, яркость и контраст до такого уровня, чтобы использовать монитор было комфортно.
- Сначала понадобится найти соответствующий инструмент для калибровки. Для этого откройте «Параметры» через меню «Пуск».
- В новом окне выберите раздел «Система» и перейдите к категории «Дисплей».
- Внизу вы найдете блок с названием «Сопутствующие параметры», в котором следует кликнуть по пункту «Расширенные параметры дисплея».
- Далее вас интересует ссылка «Свойства видеоадаптера для дисплея». По ней и нужно нажать в блоке с названием нужного для калибровки монитора, если их к компьютеру подключено несколько.
- Отобразится окно свойств монитора, в котором на вкладке «Управление цветом» понадобится нажать кнопку с одноименным названием.
- Перейдите на вкладку «Подробно» и запустите инструмент «Откалибровать экран».
- На этом моменте и начинается сам процесс параметров дисплея. Если вы еще не знаете, какие настройки будете задавать, в новом окне нажмите «Как откалибровать экран?», чтобы получить развернутую инструкцию от разработчиков. Для перехода к следующему шагу кликните по «Далее».
- Прочитайте справку о первоначальных действиях. Их необходимо осуществить в том случае, если ваш монитор поддерживает внутренние настройки. О таких более детально мы еще расскажем в Способе 3.
- В следующем шаге отображается информация о правильной настройке гаммы. Сравните три изображения и запомните состояние нормальной гаммы, поскольку примерно такого эффекта и придется достичь при дальнейшей настройке.
- Вы видите описанные выше изображения и имеете доступ к ползунку, который и отвечает за настройку гаммы. Регулируйте его до того момента, пока результат не будет вас устраивает или не станет таким, как было показано в предыдущей инструкции.
- Следующий этап подразумевает настройку яркости и контраста. Данные параметры можно изменить исключительно через панель управления самим монитором, поэтому если у вас нет кнопки вызова меню, этот этап стоит пропустить.
- Если настройка яркости дисплея поддерживается через меню вашего монитора, приступайте к чтению инструкции об этом и приготовьтесь при помощи кнопок на мониторе изменять значение, достигая подходящей для вас яркости.
- Прочитайте информацию о том, какой из элементов на картинке должен быть еле виден при настройке яркости. Регулируйте значение через меню монитора, сохраните изменения и переходите далее.
- То же самое необходимо осуществить и с контрастностью. Если ваша модель монитора не поддерживает изменение этого параметра, просто оставьте значение по умолчанию и приступайте к следующей настройке.
- На экране появится информация о настройке цветового баланса. В этом шаге тоже необходимо сравнить разные картинки и подобрать тот вариант, который будет вас устраивать.
- Начните регулирование отобразившихся на экране ползунков для удаления цветных бликов и серых полосок. Если у вас нет соответствующих знаний о правильной настройке цветового баланса, то лучше старайтесь максимально приблизиться к примеру от разработчиков.
- На этом калибровка экрана при помощи стандартного средства Windows 11 завершена. В следующем окне вы увидите кнопки для сохранения изменений или возвращения к прежней калибровке. Ниже появится опция для запуска ClearType, если помимо калибровки нужно настроить и правильное отображение текста.
Способ 2: Стороннее программное обеспечение
Существует не так много программ, которые подходят для калибровки экрана монитора без использования дополнительной аппаратуры. Однако несколько подходящих вариантов все же есть, а в рамках этой статьи мы предлагаем остановиться на решении под названием QuickGamma. Эта бесплатная программа предназначена для быстрого регулирования гаммы на ПК и выбора основных цветов, что немного влияет на их баланс.
Скачать QuickGamma
- В главном экране слева вы видите текущее значение гаммы и уровень черного. При помощи кнопок на «Monitor Gamma» осуществляется регулировка сразу трех основных цветов. Это позволит вам понизить или повысить общую гамму. Как раз эта настройка и является основной в данной программе.
- Мониторы, работающие в режиме EDID RGB, тоже поддерживаются, поэтому в случае необходимости всегда можно переключиться на другой тип предпочтительных цветов.
- Помимо общих кнопок с настройками, QuickGamma поддерживает работу с каждым цветом отдельно. Для этого на верхней панели нажмите кнопку «Gamma», чтобы перейти к соответствующему меню.
- Управление в нем максимально простое и понятное: слева отображаются три основных цвета, а справа — регуляторы для каждого из них. Увеличивайте или уменьшайте гамму до тех пор, пока не достигнете желаемого результата.
- По завершении работы с QuickGamma в главном окне нажмите «OK» для сохранения настроек или «Cancel», чтобы сбросить их до состояния по умолчанию.
На нашем сайте есть отдельная статья с обзором всех программ, подходящих для калибровки монитора. Мы рекомендуем обратить внимание на нее, если приведенный выше пример показался не совсем актуальным для вашей модели монитора.
Подробнее: Программы для калибровки монитора
Способ 3: Меню управления монитором
Вкратце остановимся на методе, который подразумевает исключительно использование меню монитора с его настройками для калибровки. Если такое поддерживается, значит, на самом мониторе сбоку или снизу должны быть кнопки, при помощи которых открывается это меню и осуществляется переключение пунктов. Значение каждой кнопки очевидно, поскольку рядом всегда есть иконка, отображающая действие.
Предварительно можете открыть любое изображение для калибровки яркости, контраста, баланса цветов или гаммы, отыскав его в открытых источниках. Далее перемещайтесь по меню и находите нужные ползунки. Изменяйте их значения до тех пор, пока не добьетесь подходящего отображения. Кстати, для настройки яркости и контраста как раз можно использовать средства калибровки из Windows 11 с его примерами и инструкциями, о чем уже было рассказано выше.
Способ 4: Использование калибратора
Калибровка экрана монитора при помощи специальных аппаратных средств — дорогостоящая процедура, подходящая исключительно профессионалам. На картинке ниже вы видите пример того, как выглядит одна из моделей такого устройства. Обычно оно подключается к компьютеру по USB, далее крепится к монитору и считывает цвета.
Сама калибровка происходит через фирменное программное обеспечение калибратора, соответственно, от каждого производителя оно будет разное. Мы не будем надолго останавливаться на данном методе, но примерно продемонстрируем, как выглядит взаимодействие с подобным ПО на примере DisplayCAL.
Скачать DisplayCAL с официального сайта
- Для работы с DisplayCAL вам понадобится приобрести калибратор от данного производителя и подключить его к компьютеру. Без устройства никакие настройки сохранены не будут. При запуске софта выберите дисплей для работы, если их подключено несколько.
- Далее прочитайте небольшую инструкцию от разработчиков о том, как происходит калибровка и что делать в случае появления различных неполадок или неточностей в считывании цветов.
- На панели сверху будет список «Настройки», из которого вы уже можете выбрать разные заготовленные параметры цветов для разных задач. Это подходит тем юзерам, кто уже знает, для каких целей используется монитор и какие значения передачи цветов нужно выставить.
- Если шаблон найден не был, происходит переход на вкладку «Калибровка», где уже осуществляется ручная настройка точки белого, уровня белого, кривой тональности и скорости калибровки. Дополнительные настройки будут на вкладке «Профилирование».
- Как только вы завершите настройку, понадобится щелкнуть по «Калибровка и характеризация», чтобы настройки вступили в силу. Иногда это может занять до часа времени.
Это был только общий пример, демонстрирующий возможности подобного программного обеспечения. Работа с таким софтом напрямую зависит от приобретенного калибратора, поэтому обязательно читайте инструкции от производителей и еще перед покупкой ознакомьтесь с тем, для каких целей предназначен тот или иной калибратор.

How to Calibrate Monitor Display Color in Windows 11
As we mentioned earlier, it is important to calibrate your display colors so that if you share your work with someone, they may see the same colors that you see on yours. It is not necessary that what may seem vibrant on your display device will seem the same way on another device.
Some users believe that calibration may only be needed once the display device is being set up for the first time. However, that is not entirely true. Yes, you should calibrate your monitor when it is being used for the first time. However, the best practice is to recalibrate it every 6 months.
This is because the display devices can lose their color sharpness, changing the output results from the actual colors. Here is how you can (re)calibrate your display device(s) easily (for free) using the built-in Display Color Calibration tool in Windows 11:
- Open the Display Color Calibration tool using any of the methods above.
- The tool will now launch where you can see instructions on each page guiding you on what to do. If multiple displays are connected, drag the tool window onto the screen that you want to calibrate, then click Next.
- You will then be asked to restore your display’s color settings to the default values through its own menu, which can be accessed directly through the button on the display device. What you can do is perform a factory reset to bring it back to the default value. Once done, click Next on the tool.
- The next page tells you what the perfect gamma settings should look like. Gamma is a mathematical combination of the colors red, green, and blue, that ultimately defines the amount of light emitted from your display device. Notice how the gamma images are different from each other. On the next screen, we must achieve the gamma settings manually to match the image in the center (Good gamma). Therefore, take a good, hard look at the center image and then click Next to begin the calibration process.
- On the next screen, adjust the slider on the left so that the small dots in the center of the circles are barely visible. If you think that the gamma settings are ideal to match the center image on the previous screen, click Next.
- You will be asked to adjust the brightness and contrast of your display. These settings are controlled directly through your display device. Therefore, click Next if your device has these settings, otherwise click Skip brightness and contrast adjustment.
- If you click Next in the last step, you will now see a guide to adjust your screen’s brightness to an optimized settings. Notice how the “Good Brightness” image looks. This is what you shall be trying to achieve on the next screen while calibrating your display’s brightness. Click Next to begin.
- On the next screen, you will see an image that will assist you in obtaining an optimized brightness level. Adjust your display device brightness level until you can distinguish the black shirt from the black coat, and then “X” is barely visible. Click Next when done.
- Next you shall adjust the display contrast using the center image. Notice how the wrinkles on the shirt are creating a shadow effect. This is what you will be using to achieve a good contrast. Click Next to begin.
- Now adjust your display device’s contract using its menu. The goal is to set the contrast as high as possible while still being able to see the wrinkles and the buttons on the shirt prominently. Once done, click Next.
- The next phase involves balancing out the red, blue, and green colors on the display device. This will be done using the Display Color Calibration tool, you may now close the display device’s menu. Notice how different combinations of excessive colors change the shade. We must try to achieve neutral grey colors on the next screen by adjusting the sliders for each color. Click Next to begin.
- On the next screen, scale up and down the slider beneath each color to achieve neutral grey shades and try different combinations. Once you are happy with the results, click Next.
- On the next screen, you can compare your previous calibration with the current one (with the new settings) and see the changes. Once you are sure you want to keep the new display color calibration, uncheck the box next to “Start ClearType Tuner when I click Finish to ensure that text appears correctly” and then click Finish.
Closing words
The Display Color Calibration tool has been around for some time now. If you are using Windows 10, you can also use this tool to calibrate your display settings there as well.
Another useful calibration tool in Windows is the ClearType Tuner. This tool helps you calibrate the text by adjusting its font, thickness, height, sharpness, etc. Not only that, you can use this tool for text calibration of each display monitor.
If you have the time, you can access the ClearType Tuner tool by keeping the box checked in step 13 above, or by searching for it through the Search box.
