Using the 1.1.1 binaries from the argyll website:

[hughsie@hughsie-work bin]$ ./printtarg -v -i CM -h -t 300 -p A4 test
Paper chosen is A4      [210.0 x 297.0 mm]
Patches = 210
Test patches per row = 15
Rows per page = 14, patches per page = 210
Rows in last strip = 14, patches in last row = 15
Total pages needed = 1
Worst case delta E = 17.561729
Worst case direction distinction delta E = 66.114449
Optimising layout for strip reader:
100%
After optimisation, worst delta E = 89.305150
Worst case direction distinction delta E = 85.458963
Creating file 'test.tif'
[hughsie@hughsie-work bin]$ ./chartread -v test
Steps in each Pass = 15
Passes in each Strip = 14
Instrument Type:   ColorMunki
Serial Number:     2023111
Firmware version:  288
Chip ID:           01-52706812000099
Version string:    'colormunki FW V1.32  Build Nr. 1303'
Calibration Ver.:  6
Production No.:    37357
Set instrument sensor to calibration position,
 and then hit any key to continue,
 or hit Esc or Q to abort:
Calibration failed with 'Measurement misread' (White reference
calibration didn't converge)
Hit any key to retry, or Esc or Q to abort:

I can't seem to get the ColorMunki to self calibrate when using
chartread, but it seems to work just fine when I'm using dispcal to
calibrate the screen.

Ideas welcome. Thanks.

Richard.
