VueScan also does that. The problem is that the monitor is still not
part of the profiled system. So if one has already worked out the
relationship between what is seen on the screen and what comes out of
the printer, profiling the printer with that method can actually make
things worse. Did for me anyway. I went back to what I had before.
I think some sort of photometer is needed for the monitor to make a
fully color profiled system. Then one can do the print a target, scan
the print, profile the ink/paper combo so it works reliably. I'm looking
forward to that one day....
