But printing a 1728 patch target internally from the Z3200 is a huge improvement over the normal target used by the Z natively.

Mark, i just made some profiles for a paper with the 'HP advanced profiling solution' (APS) that i bought with the z3100
I have a 1728 reference so it can do that too.
i made a 220, a 918 and a 1728 profile with the APS and a 440 patch profile that came with the printers software.
Result ... and for me a trending result:
1728 and 918 has some banding in places with gradients in areas with strong colors were the 440 and 220 have not.
the 440 profile was the better one in this case. ( the 220 profile was not accurate enough )
On the other hand the 918 and 1728 had more extreme colour.
so my basic idea is : more patches- more accurate colour, but also a greater chance for banding issues
What are your experiences?
I know this is a difficult subject ( can of worms) for a straightforward answer.
