The one area where profiles may not compensate for dot behavior is in the transition zone from minimum printable dot to paper white-it depends on the target that was used to build the profile, and the press behavior.

I find that it's best to determine the minimum dot the press can hold, then manually set detail white to that dot value, letting specular whites blow out to white paper.

If the profiling target has a rich set of patches in the highlights, you may not have to do this, but if it was built from an IT8/7.3 target, you almost certainly should.
