Roger, Some profiles are non existent for what I print to. Well, maybe they are and I have not searched for them. Example would be the Arches cold press watercolor paper 140 gsm…. The notecard material I use for client's notecards. The Epson Signature Worthy Series marketed by Epson just might be what you mean. I use the Epson Pro 9900 printer and canned profiles are available. Still, I do my own .icc custom profiles for this serious of papers. I use two Moab watercolor papers, and there are canned profiles for them. And the Anasazi canvas. For these three substrates I do my own custom .icc profiles. i1Profiler with version "D" i1Pro spectrophotometer is used for profiling. Assuming with my non-color science background, these tools are the best I can do. I will appreciate any and all suggestions aimed at me! What tools and instruments are you using?

David,
I know some people who have waste their time trying to outperform SOME canned profiles. HP comes to mind. It's a complicated issue to be sure. It depends on a lot of factors. With some printers and some media and some drivers, I've seen canned profiles way outperform custom profiling.
HP has really done some profiles right. Beats the shit of all my tools and instruments...
Kindly / Roger

Hi Neil.
I don't think what I am writing is part of your issue. I use custom .icc profiles I create on my own. I refuse to use canned profiles!
Cheers
