While laminate proofing systems don't use ICC profiles, the manufactures
use very high quality spectrophotometers and statistical process
manufacturing methods that keep their products very consistent. What I
am trying to say is that with these proofs the color is more consistent,
by a large margin, than the methods used in most printing houses. The
methods the laminate proof manufactures use to keep their product
constant are much more complex than making ICC profiles and normal
inkjet calibration and linearization. I have visited some of these
manufactures plants.
Most people feel that it is more important for a proof to be constant
than accurate (a match to TR001). Keep in mind that TR001 was taken
from one press run some time ago. We need new constant, colormetric
based standards.
