Digital BW, The Print

When using a hardware profiling device such as GM Eye 1 the resulting color
profile is saved in the windows/system32/spool/drivers/color folder and set
as the default system monitor profile. You can see it in place via the
Display System settings/color management tab. It will be invoked when you
boot the computer. 

Adobe Gamma creates a file in the startup folder called adobegammaloader.exe
which similarly invokes the profile on startup.
(incidentally...if you use Adobe Gamma please DON'T save the resulting
profile as adobeRGB(1998) and overwrite the working space profile!!!)

If you use a device, it is important that you remove adobegammaloader.exe
before profiling.
