Andrew,

Thanks for the help. I could not open the RGB-Drift.tif image. I think the file type got hosed. But I will download Logo ColorLab and reproduce your values.

I was trying to do this in PS starting with Don Hutcheson's proof checker, but was getting confused on the various parameters such as patch size, and how much variance there needed to be between patches for the EyeOne to sense the differences. Your solution using ColorLab sounds much better.

My immediate use for this is to try to track the drift of 2 Canon CLC's that are used at one of the design firms I do a lot of work with. The designers keep saying that the devices drift severely, but when I use the profiles I built I get pretty consistent results. When I noticed that Measure Tool will compare measurement data and give us the delta E's I figured there had to be an easy way to do this.

In thinking about it more, this might be a good idea for tracking drift on all types of devices. Just print a target like this when you make the profile, and then periodically print and measure the target and compare the readings.

There may be an ideal set of values for the target, but my guess is that as long as you have a good range you'll get a decent idea about how consistent the device is.

Thanks again.

Dennis ;-)>
