I doubt that any of the shops I removed them from could have even found them. 
The usual life history of a DTP32 in copy shops is that its been unused for 
years, they've changed RIPs and don't have software to linearize with it any 
more, wonder what they should do with it ('cause they remember thry paid lots 
for it) but the guy that was trained to use it left long ago, and the manual, 
calibration strip, etc... are long lost. The DTP32 itself will be in a junk 
drawer with three or four old proprietary monitor calibrators for monitors that 
died long ago.
