Here are two extra sets with extended grays à la Spyderprint for the i1Profiler:
The first one is designed for a miniature target on 2 small 10x15 cm (4x6") photo cards and includes the patches of the Spyderprint 225 High Quality target + Spyderprint Extended grays target squeezed down onto 2...
The proof of the pudding is in the eating: what is your experience in the black and white printing using this profile compared to a standard similar patch count profile without these neutralizing gray patches?
@crenedecotret : I have made an i1Profiler target that is based on the high quality target + grays of Spyderprint, that originally was based on RGB: 5x5x5, but I have changed it to a better RGB: 7x7x7 and including an bunch of near neutral patches (automatically generated by the i1Profiler...
I thought that PC is sold to an American entity and no longer Canadian. So be sure you can buy from them without the famous tariffs.... Anyhow original GI-23 ink bottles will be far superior in terms of fade resistance (Chromalife-100 fade resistance). Just refill your original cartridges and...
With help of @crenedecotret:
Here is a new target set based on the famous i1Profiler TC9.18 target combined with the SpyderPrint grays target (to neutralise black and white printing) to be printed on 2 sheets of A4 for ArgyllCMS and to be scanned with the i1Pro2 spectro:

Using a Colormunki the maximum amount of patches is 480 to have a comfortable and reliable reading using a scanning jig. I can remake the target for you with elongated patches so more samples are taken from each individual colour patch. This is necessary because the Colormunki only takes 50...
There is also a Colorsync version for Windows or use Qimage, where it is possible to disable color management completely
Alternatively: is (for older versions of Photoshop). First assign the sRGB/Epson RGB to the file you want to print and in the printer windows of Photoshop choose as printer...
Hi Lothar,
I am afraid this will only work with a similar notebook and just transferring the profile is only valid for that specific graphics chip and that particular version of driver.
Today I printed the modified TC9.18 target for ArgyllCMS on Netbit paper with my ET-8550 printer and used ArgylllCMS to create the profile:
The last image shows the target confines the movement of the i1Pro2 to stop exactly on the white area on of the target on the right side. I always...
@crenedecotret :
I have done the modification for the i1Pro2 scanning table and the 3 page layout has been reduced to only 2 pages (The TC9.18 version is already squeezed down onto a single A4 sheet). Scanning is only possible with the i1Pro2.
Can you make a new ti1 file but only the TC9.18...
Thank you for your work. I will try to manipulate the patches to be a bit smaller and optimize it for the i1Pro2 with my ergonomical layout for scanning. It should be possible to reduce it to just 2 sheets of A4, which will save paper.
Here is my combined target (randomized): Spyderprint 225 high quality target + grays into a single sheet A4 that can be scanned by both the Colormunki Photo/i1Studio (with a scanning jig) and the i1Pro2 device optimized for the i1Pro2 scanning table based on the ti1-file generated by...
With some manipulation and the dedicated work of @crenedecotret I managed to manipulate the famous TC9.18 target (from X-Rite i1Profiler) and which is indeed considered as the gold standard target for RGB printer targets to be compatible with ArgyllCMS and the i1Pro2 spectro + scanning table...
