Hi Adam,yes, but all of these 4+n ink printers are usually driven as either CMYK or RGB and the driver/RIP converts the incoming data to the 4+n (the vendor drivers often exclusively take RGB input).

Could elaborate on this? I thought people profiled 4880 and other printers using Argyll.

Is it normal?Argyll won't create profiles for printers a print driver that has more than 4 inks. What colorspace does your print driver expect ? Checking an existing ICC profile is one way of determining this. (i.e. the actual physical number of inks is irrelevant if you can't get to them via the print driver, because it converts some other space like RGB or CMYK into the physical ink channels.)
