RE: Do I need to upgrade to i1Profiler?
Some questions regarding i1 Profiler. When reading a target, RGB, regardless of which line I read, the software does not register the corresponding line. It does not tell me I have read the wrong line for, let's say, line 3. I can read line 12, and if line 3 was the next one, it thinks I am reading it, the software is happy. I says read line 4 Does not tell me I have read the wrong line. I have seen strange looking green profile shapes in .icc profile. Reading just one canvas, three times has given me different looking green shapes. I have no idea what is going on. I have seen this once before, so I reprinted the target and all was fine. I can send screen shots if screen shots would help. Information on the target. 1260 patch chart, 12.8 x 23.7 inches. Unscrambled. Epson Pro 9600 print driver, MBP4.1, 17 inch, os 10.6.7. I have used both the i1 Pro revision D and revision A. Normally I use revision D. But was wondering if Revision would give the same results. And it did. Thank you for your prompt consideration and response. Sincerely, David B. Miller, Pharm.

Error checking when measuring is non existent. Only when you attempt to build a profile will an error pop, one that’s pretty non descriptive. That’s your sign you need to go back into the Measurement Workflow and examine all the before and after patches. If one is off, you have to re-measure just the row.

Like dips in the surface? I’ve seen this too but the resulting profiles seem fine. This was a new experience for me when showing off a class the software last weekend using an EyeOne Pro. I’ve done a lot of profiles with an iSis, never noticed this before. Maybe a bug in way the map is built? Andrew Rodney http://www.digitaldog.net/
It might be worth a try change the MeasurementTolerance=0.4 line to 0.2 in the XRi1G2WorkflowSettings.ini file. I don't know where it is located on a windows install but on the Mac it is in .../Library/Application Support/X-Rite/i1Profiler/XRi1G2WorkflowSettings.ini. I am getting messages more often that I did not get a good read on a line and I seem to be getting better profile with the setting at MeasurementTolerance=0.2. Before I was not getting line read error messages but I could visually see that that colors for some targets were so far off they had to be wrong. I always wondered how many were off that I couldn't tell. Doyle On Jun 18, 2011, at 6:08 PM, Millers' Photography L.L.C. wrote:
