I4m sorry that my English is not good enough, but I will try to explain it
once more. This how I make a profile for a copy/printer connected to a
Fiery rip with Colorwise 2.
Before I send the testchart from Profilemaker to the rip, I4m setting the
simulation in colorwise pro tools to none and the out profile to fiery
default profile. The output profile contains both the ICC profile and the
calibration target . When you set the simulation to none the icc profile in
the output profile is not used, only the calibration target is in use. If
you now send the testchart to the rip it will be printed without a profile.
When you have measured the testchart and downloaded the profile to the rip,
you will see that the simulations will work fine. EFI uses as default
relative colormetric between simulation and output. I hope this explains it
better.
I understand but if you must use simulation to use ICC then you
cannot print to the full gamut of the device. Of course the
calibration is probably limiting that anyway.
The point I was trying to make is any RIP should have a selectable
setting of none for profiles or a switch to turn off any color
management. This allows a user to build a profile, install it is the
RIP and call on it. It should not take hours of reverse engineering
the settings on the UI to figure these things out.
