I will try that, thank you.

Argyll patches are printed with Adobe Color Printer Utility and i1Studio directly from application. Both is printing with driver, same settings (Photo 1440, unidirectional, same paper type, no color management...).

Big thanks for your efforts! In post #358 are profiles for exact same paper taken even from the same box. I am allways getting less contrast profile from argyll...also on glossy papers (ilford smooth pearl), hahnemuhle photorag Baryta... And what i would like to find out is argyll...

Sorry, now i get it... :) This is similar patch set for different paper (also matt). Here is print screen... Black is upper right corner...

This are patches from Argyll - not exactly for same paper but very similar.

Thank you for your efforts! This are patches for i1Studio software - between there is cursor rolling and CPU gets really hot while making icc profile. It gos in 2 stages. Firs is one set of patches (.....EAM 1.jpg), than after reading first step of patches it generates second set of patches...

It is very limited edition software, that's why i started using Argyll. In xrite application, i can only scan black patches in the way to start in optimise profile mode, than save tiff file and read L*ab values in photoshop. Not usable, darkest black tone is measured with values L=1, a=0 b=0...

Yes, that is for dark 100% patch. I am scaning 505 patches with Argyll on A4 page, or 50 + 50 patches with i1Studio software. Don't understand which print screen you would like to see? A am using mostly Windows for argyll, but when i tried on Mac, results with same patches were the same...

It is impossible to read it from xrite software, but if i read it with argyll i get L a b values from 21 step patch: Matt paper - Tecco SAM200. Step Dens Lab A B 0.00 0.031 97.25 -0.23 2.08 5.00 0.060 94.75 -0.06 1.83 10.00 0.092...

I am using i1Studio. Maybe also helps that i observed same with some glossy papers (Hahnemuhle GlossBaryta/PhotoRag Baryta, Ilford Smooth Pearl) and matt papers (Tecco PM230, PPM225, SAM200)... Also the same simptoms if i make profiles for Epson P600 or P800.

Thank you for the hint. I am printing mostly from perceptual rendering intent, i also tried from relative colorimetric with black point compensation off and was pretty much the same.

Hi to all members, I have a problem with dark areas when doing profiles from ARGYll compared to xrite i1 Studio software. I get good neutral prints, but i can see the lack of dark tones - it is like a bit of foggy. When i compared profiles with ColorSynch utility i get quite different graphs...
