Eizo CG222W 22" ColorEdge Monitor Overview
The Eizo CG222W 22" ColorEdge is a wide gamut monitor ideal for high-end graphics work such as pre-press and digital photography. Features 12 bit hardware calibration and uniform brightness across the screen.
Premium Edition Model
As a ColorEdge Premium Edition model, the CG222W offers the following benefits.
This EIZO-developed software comes bundled with ColorEdge models and offers 12 bit hardware calibration when used with X-Rite or Datacolor measurement device. Further Details
Wide Color Gamut
The wide gamut LCD panel reproduces 92% of the Adobe RGB color space so it can display most colors in a photograph taken in Adobe RGB mode. This means it covers almost all of the CMYK color spaces used for printing so it produces a reliable soft proof when calibrated.
Widescreen Format
The wide screen format with its 16:10 aspect ratio offers more horizontal viewing space than conventional monitors.
Factory Adjustment of Gamma
To ensure that each monitor produces the most accurate and consistent color gradations possible, EIZO carefully measures and sets every shade of R, G, and B from 0 - 255 on the production line with the monitor's 12 bit Look-Up Table, to produce a monitor gamma value of 2.2. Should the user prefer a different value, ColorNavigator software can be used to set the gamma value from a range of 1.0 up to 2.6 in increments of 0.1.
8 ms Midtone Response Time
To enhance moving image playback capabilities, an overdrive circuit is included. An overdrive circuit vastly improves the LCD panel’s response time for changing between midtones or gray levels, which is necessary to display color images without blurring.
Brightness Stabilization Function
Ensures stable brightness - necessary for the proper display of color – with EIZO patented technology*. A drift correction sensor quickly stabilizes the brightness level after startup or coming out of power saving mode. Furthermore, the monitor detects and automatically compensates for brightness changes caused by surrounding temperatures and the passage of time.
*Japan Patent Numbers 3171808 and 3193315; US Patent Number 6188380.
Protanopia and Deuteranopia Simulation in Real Time
Simulates* two types of red-green color vision deficiency – protanopia and deuteranopia. The ColorEdge CG222W does all the color conversion processing in real time – even moving images. With the bundled UniColor Pro software (Windows Vista/XP/2000 and Mac OS X 10.3.9 or later only) – also developed by EIZO – the designer can instantly switch from a normal viewing mode to the Protanopia and Deuteranopia viewing modes. Until now, tools available for simulating color vision deficiency have been software based so the color conversion process can be time consuming depending on the size and quantity of images to be converted, making these tools of limited practical use.
* This product simulates, but does not show colors exactly how they appear to a person with protanopia (shades of red are reduced or not distinguishable in depth and luminosity) or deuteranopia (differences between red and green are difficult to distinguish). People with color vision deficiency are more sensitive to differing levels of luminance and saturation than those with normal color vision; hence some differences in color perception will remain when looking at a simulated image. What this product can do is make it easier to identify which colors and color schemes will be difficult for protanopes and deuteranopes to distinguish.

Placement Flexibility
The stand is height adjustable through an 82 mm range and provides 40° tilt and 70° swivel so every user can easily set the ideal position. It also pivots 90° for portrait mode viewing. Compatibility with VESA mounting standards allows the monitor to be removed from the stand for mounting on a movable arm or wall bracket.
Customer Assurance
A five-year warranty offers a long service life, and compliance with leading industry standards such as TCO’03 and TÜV Ergonomics ensures a better working environment. The EIZO Eco Products 2006 label indicates these products meet strict internal requirements for design, manufacturing, packaging, and usage, including the introduction of lead-free solder and chrome-free steel plates.

Premium Edition Model
As a ColorEdge Premium Edition model, the CG222W offers the following benefits.
- Brightness and color compensation with EIZO's Digital Uniformity Equalizer (DUE) function for a Delta-E difference of 3 or less across the screen.
- 16 bit internal processing for grayscale rendering that is on a par with high-end CRT monitors.
- Monitor hood with sliding top cover and screen cleaner kit are bundled with the monitor.
