Re: [Digital BW] more colorbase misc.

I think this where your argument breaks down.  There is no RIP/driver
control - they are not offering a RIP.  It merely colour corrects output
back to a "standard" so that the standard profile works well with the
standard driver. You can either tweak the LUTs so the old profile works or
get a new profile.  Personally I see little hassle difference in printing
and measuring a 264 patch test chart vs the IT9.18 target.

It won't help users of third party inks and paper at all.
