My question, can I expect noticeable improvement in image quality (I mostly print portraits) if I get a ColorMunki and make my own profiles?
P.S. Anyone using Qimage with the new Epsons (7900 or 9900 )?
Alan, I just got my 7900 and one of the first things I did was build a profile in PMP 5.08 for Epson Premium Lustre 260. I did a quick gamut compare to the canned Epson profile and they were almost identical. I've done some printing since, and I can tell you what Andrew says is right - you would be hard-pressed to see a difference. For skin tones I like my profile better, but unless you compared prints side by side, I doubt you'd notice.
Looks like manufacturing tolerances on paper, ink, printers, etc. are getting really tight, and the generic profiles hold up well.
