Graeme’s done a great job with Argyll such that the defaults are not only not
harmful but very likely exactly what you want. “If you know what you’re doing,”
there’s all the knobs in the world to turn. But you generally don’t want to go
turning knobs unless there’s something specific that makes you think you’re far
enough off the beaten path to turn the knob.
Of course, you _do_ have to specify parameters for things like reflective /
display mode, the number and type of colorants your device has (for targen),
that sort of thing that Argyll has no way of knowing.
But performance tuning? Try the defaults; you’ll almost certainly be happy. If
you’re not happy, make sure your workflow is okay. And then start to look at
the options.
Cheers,

Thanks, any pertinent spotread options I should be aware of?

Sure, use "spotread", take note of the Lab value measured, then as long as
your working profile encompasses that color in its gamut, you can make a
color patch in the color picker by typing in the measured values (if it's
beyond the gamut of your working profile it won't look right, although the
chances of it looking perfect on the screen are very low anyway)
you'll at least get yourself pretty close this way.

I have successfully set up my i1Studio to work with Argyll and have created
a printer profile.
But I have a curious question, is there a way to say, measure a color and
then take that color into photoshop?
