the device. Its behavior is its fingerprint. A mislabeled device could
be identified by profiling it, and then matching its fingerprint to
labeled profiles.
I disagree. Fingerprinting is generally an analysis of the press/print
conditions with usually a recommendation to alter the press's behavior
in some way. Profiling does not result in an alteration of the press's
behavior at all, simply a characterization of it's current print
condition, good or bad.
I'll see if I can get more detailed information elsewhere or else we
can simply agree to disagree. :-)
