All the conditions you mention will influence the output from these
printers. Don9t forget inklot consistency.
If you still own and/or use ColorBlind Professional you could use the
statistical tools even with the simple linearization targets to actually
track drift. With these delta E(and .RPT files) results you can in turn log
into excel form the data that you can use to develop a schedule for
"re-calibration" of your specific device.
It will only prove useful if you in turn, make note of temp, humid, etc...
Having this info collectively will allow you to learn exactly the behavior
of the machine of interest, and therefore control it.
