I'm not sure I would use EZ Color to build a profile, and then expect to hold
it to delta-e values of accuracy. If you have Profiler than thats the tool to
use. If your laser is so variable that you need to reprofile constantly, and
are using EZ Color for the speed of reprofiling, then you should probably not
be spending time making delta-e comparisons; just live with the approximate
results.
