Scanning the target

 If you have a Spectrolino, Spectroscan, DTP41 or DTP51 you candownload a program to scan the target. When you submit   the scanned target we will automatically make an ICC profile.

If you have another type of spectrophotometer and you receive a XYZ or L*a*b* each time it reads a color. You can download a program which lets you enter by hand the value for all the colors of the target. When you submit the entered data we will automatically make an ICC profile. 

 

Download the attached zip file.

Unzip on the screen. Copy the files across to your desktop. You should have 3 target files, the targetreader and the libusb0.dll (the programs to read in the targets).
