Thanks for the reply.

My only concern is that if more areas are showing out of gamut with
the new Spyder profile does that mean these areas cannot completely
correctly be put onto the paper using the current printer and ink ? 

My understanding was that for the areas that are showing as out of
gamut then there is some 'black box' calculation occurring which means
that the colours you eventually get in these areas are close
'approximations' to the desired colours but the result will be not
entirely predictable.... Am I right in thinking this ?

Maybe you could expand on your answer please ?

Thanks,
Rick
