Help making paper ICC profiles

2006-08-20 by Roger

Good afternoon,
I use the R220 with UT-R2 inks and Paul Roark's ICCs as a starting 
point the papers I use.  
There are a few papers I'd like to try, but I've been frustrated so far 
using papers without ICCs as some print far too light, etc.  
Paul has reasonable instructions for making your own paper profiles, 
but I don't own a flatbed scanner or an expensive profiling package.

Would anyone who has taken the time to learn how to make ICCs as Paul 
describes be interested in making additional profiles for a reasonable 
price?  If you spent $500+ on a hardware profiling package, it could 
help you defray your costs.  There are commercial services as low as 
$25/profile, but I worry that they are mainly set up for color.

Feel free to email me if you are interested. rsmith02 at gmaildotcom

Also, if anyone wants 200+ 4x6 Epson Semimatte sheets for proofing, let 
me know as I can't use them.
