EIZO Introduces ColorEdge CG19 LCD Monitor
for Graphic Arts and Printing
Cypress, CA, October 8, 2004 – Eizo Nanao Technologies Inc. (“EIZO”) today announced the
release of the ColorEdge CG19 to its ColorEdge series of LCD monitors for professionals in DTP,
pre-press, digital photography, and graphics. Featuring hardware calibration for accurate and

calibration sensors (sold separately) to deliver accurate and
reliable color calibration over the monitor’s life.
“The ColorEdge CG19 provides a complete combination of
reliable color calibration over the monitor’s life.
“The ColorEdge CG19 provides a complete combination of
software and hardware performance to give graphics and printing professionals a highly reliable
monitor for color management,” said Kaz Kajikawa, North American Product manager of Eizo
Nanao Technologies. “Many other desirable features such as a thin bezel design and a five year
warranty make it very appealing to make the switch from CRT monitors.”
To ensure consistent color display for each ColorEdge CG19 unit, EIZO adjusts the gamma level at
the factory for every ColorEdge CG19 unit to a value of 2.2. This is done by using the monitor’s
10-bit look-up table (LUT) with its palette of 1,021 tones, to select the 256 most appropriate tones
for red, green, and blue. Gamma is also user-adjustable from 1.8 up to 2.6.

Eye-One™ measuring device (sold separately). ColorNavigator
offers hardware calibration by controlling the monitor’s 10-bit LUT, a process that ensures no
color gradations are sacrificed in the calibration process. The result is highly accurate colors with a
delta-E difference of less than 0.5 for the monitor’s color temperature. Calibration results can be
saved as a ColorSync or ICC profile.
A constant brightness level is critical for the proper display of color and the ColorEdge CG19
contains a patented brightness stabilization circuit developed in-house that stabilizes the brightness
level within minutes after startup or coming out of power save mode. This circuit also detects and
automatically compensates for brightness fluctuations due to ambient temperature. Most CRT and
LCD monitors require a 1-2 hour warm-up period to achieve stable brightness, and the brightness
level of these monitors is easily affected by changes in the surrounding temperature.
Incorporating the latest LCD technology, the ColorEdge CG19 employs a dual-domain IPS
(in-plane switching) panel, which features wide 170° viewing angles and minimal color shift when
the screen is viewed from off-center. The native resolution is 1280 × 1024, brightness 250 cd/m²
and contrast ratio 450:1. Dual DVI-I inputs support analog and digital signals from up to two
computers.
