Use profile for standard printing condition and adjust output to suit
individual press
a useful route when it isn't possible to print to a standard
FujiFilm 2002
Profile testing
Accuracy
measure a profile's accuracy using a reference set of color patches
example IT8.7/3 basic set for a printer profile
Average and Maximum dE can highlight profiles with problems
Quality
use the profile to process a number of standard test images and view
the result
example SCID images
