It's interesting question. From my experience, there is not enough 1400 patches for profiling "unknown" RGB printer (Canon or Epson with non-original inks). The most problems are in the darks: the printer and paper combination may have an unpredictable behavior (steepness of device response in dark region) and the 1440 patches of OFPS is insufficient. With 1440 patches, darks are not well characterized in 50% of cases. There may be few patches per volume unit of the darks.
Hi Nikolay, where in the dark gamut do you think this problem lies ? Towards neutral, or towards the edge of the gamut ? Graeme Gill.
