I wouldn't make that assumption too hastily. Most printers use CMYK as the basis of their print colors, but they usually run from an RGB driver. I've profiled a number of the Phaser "crayon printers" as well as the Phasers that are actually toner devices (Lasers) with our products. Unless you are sending CMKY files to a special PostScript driver, you can probably profile this device with PrintFIX PRO; though you should certainly download Spyder3Print v3.5 software, if you are actually still using the PrintFIX PRO software.
