Is there a website that is posting/centralising icc paper profiles for
different printers? Seems like this would be a good thing for all. Whenever
someone developed a decent paper-printer-ink profile they could post it. The
companies selling profiling systems probably wouldn't like it very much.
 
The only paper ink profiles that could be developed is for branded paper
and oem ink. Aftermarket ink is not consistent where you know who the
mfg/formulator is and can vary from month to month.

It usually contravenes the profiling software license to publicly post
profiles. There's a few Canon and Epson ones around though, eg
http://wandb.com/icc.htm, and some paper suppliers provide free
profiles for popular printers for use with their papers, e.g.
http://www.lyson.com/icc-pc.html.

Is there not a "freeware" paper profiling system out there. Something that's
open source? The w and b site is good if you happen to have a canon. I'm
looking for epson profiles.
