Mike,
>Most EFI XF users use the optimization procedure, which uses the measurement of a profiling chart >(it can be a reduced one) to interpose an L*a*b* correction LUT to "tune" the final, profiled result..
My experience: I do not see much benefits of the LAB correction, so hardly to say that the Lab Correction is more precise than profiling alone.
>This is preferred because it is more precise than profiling alone, and is especially preferred when the proofer was initially set up with optimization.
Again, as i know EFI products and materials, I bet that this sentence comes from the user guide or EFI product brochure. Sorry.
> It can also be used to align to another printer's optimized result.
Hardly.
It is not just a case of EFI. Vendors often promise this kind of functionality, but they usually failed to deliver. My latest terrible experience is with Mimaki Profile Master II - two printers, separate calibrations and profiles give nearly identical output, while special procedure for printes matching (exactly as described in user guide) simply does nothing.
