Adjusting a Samsung monitor screen may need to be done to correct the color; or to increase or decrease the brightness and the contrast. You can do this using the built-in adjustment options on the monitor or using a software program that you can download and install from Samsung. Both of these options provide you with the ability to make adjustments using a menu that is displayed on the screen.
