The majority has PMP which has no way of generating custom targets

"oh well, I guess that's the best we can do" when they could be  

getting better results with MP's custom targeting approach.



I can see some disadvantages to this approached when working with true RGB photo-printer's (Lambda, Light-jet etc.)

Most users of these machines will run (hopefully) a linearization strip through the built in software/hardware every morning or on a roll change of media. Surely if another MP linearization is taking place over this lin, the profile cannot be accurate unless the user goes through the chore of creating a new profile every time they re-lin and again re-lin in MP.  Another point I should mention is that if these machines are linearization and profiled correctly you will not see the double black issue.
