Thanks to everyone for the suggestions with my problems with the
Kodak DCP9500/Harlequin RIP. I thought you might be interested in the
outcome. I was never able to get the rendering intent of the output
profile loaded into the Harlequin RIP to make a difference in the
print. Creating a device link profile with ColorThink using the Apple
CMM yeilded an 8 mb file which seemed to be damaged, so I used the
Heidleberg CMM which produced an 800k file. Then the device link
worked and the output matched the relative colorimetric intent I was
going for. It seems the Harlequnn RIP works fine with device link
profiles, but doesn't handle standard ICC profiles correctly. One
oddity though--I created the device link with the relative
colorimetric intent, but both the Harlequinn RIP and ColorThink
report it as Perceptual. Since the output looks like RC, I'm not too
concerned, but it would be nice if the data were correct. Is it
possible that the creation of the device link used the RC intent from
input to output profile, but the "current" intent of the device link
is perceptual? Maybe there really is no current intent since it's not
a standard profile anymore and there is just no tag to indicate
"none."
