Digital BW, The Print

Steve,

Well, as I said in an earlier post, the Epson profiles (whether made by 
Logo, Seiko Epson, or X-rite) are probably made with top-of-the-line gear 
and software than most normal people can afford. I've used a Colormouse and 
and i1Pro to make printer profiles, and tried to improve them with 
DoctorPro, but it is not an easy matter to get a good profile, and the 
'experts' say that one profile that is good at everything is an 
impossibility. Too many assumptions and subjective decisions have to be made 
in the profile-making software.

So I suspect that having an expert at Logo or X-rite making and tweaking a 
profile to meet Epson's requirements, is probably going to be better than 
you or I can do. So if we can simply recalibrate our printers to match 
theirs, life should be simpler and better.

"The proof of the pudding is in the eating", so we'll see!

Bob Frost.

But what are the advantages over a simple custom profile?  This question is
at the heart of the matter.
