ChromaMax Part 4: Printer Profiling
The final RIP calibration step is profiling. If the base calibration steps performed beforehand aren’t done properly, you won’t get a get profile. But even if the previous steps are performed perfectly, there is a surprising amount of profiling variables that are important to discuss to ensure we get the best ICC profile possible. ChromaMax targets use bottom weighted patches that allow us to characterize deep shadow color better than traditional targets that distribute patches evenly throughout the tonal range. In the same fashion, its important that we create profiling targets…
