Has anyone seen a solution to the i1Profiler issue that is approaching users of macOS?
xRite left this market and has turned over support of the instruments and software to Calibrite and they have their own agenda. You may want to contact Calibrite and ask if they intend to rewrite the application or will they replace it with a new one.
i1Profiler can easily be addressed by a $35-$75 MacMini from eBay running a pre-Ventura OS. Make sure you do not purchase one that has been upgraded to modern OS X.
In this case you install the old xRite software on it to run your spectro. You will also get better printing from hanging your printers off it. This eliminates the constant OSX ICC interference (or changes) and allows printing targets from applications other than Preview to circumvent that. Of course one can print color targets from PrintTool to circumvent that. But older OSX helps users who have color printers and want to stabilize and potentially improve their ICC color management. It also offers the older interface to QTR which is much simpler to print with and eliminates saved settings issues or any issues surrounding “last used settings” being forgotten. Just a much better workflow to use a Printer server this way.
Here is a link to a tutorial on how to set one up as a shared server so that you can continue imaging on latest greatest and printing from a rock steady.
Best,
Jon
