Vintage HP/GretagMacbeth Eye-one Pro spectrophotometer: still sealed

[pharmacist]

Today I received a vintage HP/GretabMacbeth Eye-One Pro, that was still sealed and included a CD-ROM with the older iMatch software.

I will try to install the old software that probably will only work in 32-bit Windows versions, otherwise ArgyllCMS is the way to go

Wow, what archeological dig did that come from? I did not even know that Gretag MacBeth partnered with other companies to have names such as HP imprinted on their hardware. I bought an i1 Pro 1 rev B back in 2005, and I recognize all of that hardware in your pictures.

Support lasted longer than you think with the correct version of i1 Profiler.
Here is a link that talks about the latest and last support from an OS and software basis for the i1 Pro 1:

The link embedded in that page is no longer available to access the last supported hardware, yet you may have a copy of your own.

I use ArgyllCMS.

PS - it's due for a calibration

Unfortunately I can only get hold of an older version of i1Profiler (1.7.1), so looking for the 3.1.1 version. I tested with ArgyllCMS and it worked perfectly. compared to the i1Pro2 with the same target the profile volume is similar using ArgyllCMS so the HP eye-one seems to function properly.

Download of the last i1Prifler version supporting the original i1Pro spectro is possible here - PC or Mac version

The actual spectro acts as license dongle on XRite software, licence data can be transferred from one spectro to another - e.g. from an older i1Pro to an i1Pro2 or 3.

That link is dead unfortunately. I tried it before......
