Rick,
I just did some work with the Xerox 7700 and it is a good CMYK printer rip
combo. If I have understood this product correctly ( and I might have not)
I was not impressed with the PhaserMatch Color Management software. What I
saw was a tool to visually adjust gray balance in the highlight, midtone and
shadow areas. I found that very limiting. As for a profiling app. I didn9t
see any ICC savvy tools much less a profile editor.
