The 7600/9600 Imageprint version should have a price above $ 2500,- AFAIK.

The term 'custom profiles' should be used for profiles for a
colourspace/ink/paper combination on a unique printer. It is a good thing
that a lot of profiles are included for popular ink/paper sets but a 'custom
profile' is of course better. So every purchaser can get a profile/profiles
for the system he uses when he delivers printed targets ? That's included in
the price ?
