Hi,

I wonder if there's any tool to implement
ICC aware transforms on spooled print jobs for
CUPS / Foomatic / Gutenprint. It seems like one can
embed a ICC tag into files that are to be printed but
AFAIK there's nothing that actually does (as a print filter /
option) anything with that such as converting from source ICC
to printer colorspace.
It's possible to lash up PhotoPrint and a shell script into a very
rudimentary solution for this. The result isn't properly CM-aware, and
can't take profiles from submitted print jobs - what it *can* do,
however, is convert spooled print-jobs from non-CM-Aware apps like
OpenOffice from a preset source colour space to a printer profile.
Mail me off-list if you're interested to know more.
All the best,
