Screen is lighter than my printouts! Can't Callibrate Monitor!

I was wondering if anyone knew how I should adjust my screen to show exactly how it will print out because what my screen shows is lighter and my printer is darker! I keep having to go back and lighten my LO's and am not sure how light to make it. I have an emachine 17" flat panel and I've tried to calibrate it according to a book I have called The Missing Manual by Barbara Brundage (a life saver) and was able to do it with my old screen but it's not working for this one! Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated! Even if it's something as simple as just darkening my screen so it matches my printouts let me know because I haven't tried that yet, it just hit me! Thanks!
