Title: A couple of profiling questions
Post by: SteveAlley on November 30, 2009, 10:26:38 am

When profiling glassy papers for the 3800, if I'm setting output levels at, say, 245 for the purposes of limiting gloss differential, should I redo my paper profiles with this setting on the targets?

Also;

for the purposes of profile testing only, can I use "convert to profile" with printer profiles and print the resulting file with no printer or photoshop color management, thus enabling me to test different profiles on a larger sheet of paper with only one pass through the printer?
Thanks!

Steve

For your first question I'd say yes. If you change anything related to the ink settings you should generate a new profile.
