What do you want, scans of printed output? That would allow us to see if any
workflows produced unexpected posterization, but it wouldn't allow us to
compare neutrality, etc., because everyone's scanners are different. I'd
like to see a combo of a gradient scan, and a list of Lab readings from a
step wedge.
