I wouldn't go so far as to say that it is cantrast. The sensitivity can be
adjusted but I'm not sure if it's a contrast issue or a LAB etc. issue.
Most software that I am familiar with has a target that is designed for a
scanning Spectrophotometer. An example is Print Open. I use the Print Open
target for the DTP41. They have designed it for the way the DTP41 scans and
I presume this is why Spectrocam works well with it. It works great. Since
you don't have a limit on the width of the strip, you can stack them close
together when printing them. The order is linear to the basic target when
you stack them as 1, 2, 3, and 4.

I'm hoping some one else can take this one. Here is my best shot at it. The
simple definition of a colorimeter is a optical measurement instrument that
responds to color in a manor similar to the human eye, by filtering light
into it's dominant regions of Red, Green and Blue.
