I'd be curious to compare notes with you, Bruce. You have the same monitor I
have as well as the same instrument, an EyeOnePro. And we're both using the
same i1 match software.
The way I tested the profile generated by iMatch on my 900u with my
EyeOnePro is to use some standard CMYK images from the ISO12640 series, in
Photoshop, while I observe them in a GTI 5000K booth.
I have to tell you that these images were ran on a Fuji CMYK Pictro proofer
of which I made an Output profile from at the same time I ran the ISO
images. Now, I am pretty confident in the quality of my Fuji profile that I
use to view the ISO images in Photoshop because the AbsCol Lab readout I get
of all 210 original PO4 CMYK target patches agrees to +/- 1 Delta E with the
original measurements (made with a DTP41 and a DigitalSwatchbook). (Maybe I
should redo my Pictro profile with the EyeOne just for curiosity?)
So, in my view, unless there is some other error in my system of measurement
and profile that I am not aware of, the only cause I can see for the color
mismatch between my printed Fuji test images and their rendering on-screen
in Photoshop has got to be in the monitor profile that iMatch generates.
