Thanks guys. I read and rerad the Argyll web pages and also serached again through the mailing list. Thanks for the correction on RGB. I got confused (and maybe got my hopes up!) that I could do an initial "tuning" of the target parameters by ink colors. No big deal. I also read through this
http://www.luminous-landscape.com/forum/index.php?topic=53408.0 which I had read through before, and got depressed. Honestly was not looking forward to burning through paper with the tweaking of profiles. I did that with my Spyder3Print SR. Even though it (like i1Match, PMP, and i1Profiler) is supposed to be an "expert" system, I was never happy with the initial profile. Always wound up going through at least 10-12 additional tweaks before I was happy with the result.
Alan, I'm hoping your initial target recommendation with the additional gray scale patches will get me closer than with S3P. I was looking at Iliah's method (

BTW Alan, there is a printer-capable GUI for Argyll, found here
