"Since the output profile has already been applied, you just print with No Color Management."
in principle i understand this instruction however if i print the progressive curve tests through photoshop and in the print diologue box select photoshop manages colors i am required to select the appropriate icc profile from the drop down menu. isn't this a problem. won't i be adding an extra profile adjustment to the test print.
how do i print the curve tests with no color management. do i let printer manage colors. . .
thank you.

thank you for your thoughts on this.You can open our Matrix Large test image in Photoshop,i am able to do thisapply your SpyderPrint-built profile to the imagehow exactly do i proceed to apply my spyderprint built profile to the image.Edit > Convert to Profile. Choose your Custom SpyderPrint profile.then create an RGB correction curve in Photoshop, adjusting only the global curve, not the individual R, G or B curve.i think i can do the aboveIts a matter or making small adjustments to the areas that you want lighter or darker, printing tests, making further changes, saving each generation of curve adjustments, until the print results are just as you want them. Since the output profile has already been applied, you just print with No Color Management.you can then import that RGB correction curve into SpyderPrint and apply it to the profile to get these results directly from a new version of the custom profile.how do i do accomplish this import and the application of the curve to the profile.Launch SpyderPrint. At the fork in the road, select Choose Existing Measurement Set. Select the set for your profile. Move forward to the SpyderProof View screen, and choose the button for the Advanced Editing button. On the SpyderProof Edit screen, select the button named Import Curves File, and navigate to where you have saved your Photoshop Curves file. Once selected, it will be applied to your profile. Now save new version of the profile, named to reflect the addition of the curves.michaelC. David Tobie
