do you mind explaining what kind of ProfileMaker "issue" your are referring
to ? And how did your friend confirm this issue ? ProfileMaker is known to
create high quality CMYK profiles and we (as many customers and color
consultants out there) have run extensively tests with the Epson 7600/9600
and got great results.
Thanks alot and best regards,
Roland

Hello,

I can't help but throw in my two cents worth on profiling software. I

have extensively tested and used many of the profiling packages over
>
the last eight years.

ProfileMaker was my profiling software of choice till fall of last
>
year. While attempting to create a cmyk profile for an Epson 9600 with
>
Ultrachrome inks, I discovered an issue with ProfileMaker. Be aware

that if you are creating an rgb profile, this is not an issue. I know
>
of people that are getting good rgb profiles. If you really need to get
>
the fullest gamut out of a printer, you need to do a cmyk profile. Also

if you want to control your black generation; cmyk is the way to go.

ProfileMaker seems to have a gamut compression issue with cmyk

profiles. Friends (color theory types) have confirmed finding this

attached. I'm working on a fine art project with a very picky

photographer. I have been able to create profiles that have met his

very tough requirements with MonacoProfiler. I'm very happy with the

profile accuracy and level of control that this software provides. BTW

analysis.
