I made the first two BW profiles (one neutral and one warm tone BW modes) for Hahnemuhle Photo Luster 260 and Canon PRO-1000. They are working very well. I can see on screen the output of the printer WB modes. Very useful. Now I will try to edit the softproofted image and print it with the null transform trick.
The only problem I had to solve was printing with "Printer Manages Color" and "Relative Colorimetric" from Photoshop 22.1 the target and the test images. I quickly noticed that something was wrong. The lower tones was crushed like I was printing without "Black Point Compensation". I then noticed that the BPC checkbox is disabled when "Printer Manages Color" is selected.
I then printed the target and the test images from Qimage Ultimate + "Printer Manages Color" and all was ok.
If you wish I can sent you the measurement files from the targets printed with PS and Qimage to see the differences.
Thank you Doug!
Glad to hear it's working out for you even though the Printer Manages workaround is not intuitive.
I recently discovered a way to avoid the workaround for "Printer Manages Color" and get "Photoshop Manages Color" to work with printers that don't, by default, show custom profiles.
Open Windows Color Management dialog. Then select use profile checkbox then push the ADD button. This displays the installed profiles. Select your custom profile. Now it will show up in Photoshop's print dialog. To print charts just use the normal way either with I1PRofiler or ACPU. And use the normal ways of soft proofing/printing letting Photoshop manage color when printing.
I'm in the process of cleaning up the readme file to get rid of all the "Printer manages" workaround stuff and put it in a separate readme. Can be useful to provide soft proofing capability for the few people that like to use Printer Manages.
