What they thought was, there are a few potential customers that are not very demanding in their need for quality color printer profiles. Andrew Sent from my iPhone

Yes, MonacoEZColor! That's it

So what made a world-renowned color company think they could offer consumer inkjet printer profiling this way?

And it worked for me well enough to allow custom ink and paper combos that looks way better than default, even if they might be imperfect by all kinds of measures.

Back in the bronze age of consumer color I had a Monaco package that made printer and scanner profiles. MonacoEZ? Whatever, scanner based printer profiles? No, it didn’t work worth a damn making printer profiles. Back in days even before that, at least there were actual tools like the ColorTron (still have one) that could. Why can an unprofiled scanner be used to make a printer profile, No. yet it's common to create and use a IT8- ot Q60-referenced scanner profile for photographic scans? What makes you assume an un-profiled scanner can make a printer profile that’s useable? Have you ever tried to make a decent paper profile with a scanner as some here have? Tried the same thing with a recent version of SliverFast? I have, also a printer profile created. Useless but created. Do you own a Spectrophotometer? Want a printer profile, use that; right tool for the right job. Andrew Rodney http://www.digitaldog.net/ <http://www.digitaldog.net/>
