Exactly!  :-)

Device values are just that and nothing more...there's no particular EXPECTED behavior from a set of device values.

Now if you were to compare your printer profile to a "reference" profile such as AdobeRGB, sRGB, whatever, you'd have something to compare to. For that matter, the first printer profile you create could be a basis or reference to compare against if you're going to make further adjustments to the device such as linearization, channel ink limits, whatever.

Terry
