Of course, I could work around it, but, no matter how I tried I could not find a profile change that would make them identical. The scanner is on a PC platform ( NT ). </FONT></DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Well yesterday, going through the Mac side of the Minolta CD I found an ICC Profile that does not exist on the PC side. I copied it to a floppy, then into the WinNT>System32>Color directory and added .icm to the name. Opened the saved scan in PS 5.5 choosing do not convert then ran a profile to profile ( Minolta Dimage Multi to Adobe RGB ). BINGO! Results right on every time. B&W scans I convert to RGB with no profile conversion, then do the Minolta to Adobe P to P --- again perfect density. Then using the CMYK conversion - channel mixer changes recommended by George de Wolfe printed to Somerset Enhanced Satin using MIS sixtones on a E750. Very good results. Happy to hang them on a wall.</FONT></DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Why Minolta does not stress this profile exists is a mystery to me. Does anyone know if there is a icc profile for the Polaroid Sprint Scan 4000?</FONT></DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Brent Dorsett --- NYC</FONT></DIV></BLOCKQUOTE></BODY></HTML> </x-html>
