You can buy a program to do it yourself. Sure it might not be as accurate
but do you know which spectrophotometer Pixl use? And lets face it,
you're running a consumer printer not a million dollar four colour press
.. :)
Colorvision produce "Profile RGB". It's £139 in the UK. You make a print
from their target and use your flat bed scanner to produce a profile. Er,
if you have a flat bed! Doing it yourself means you can produce a profile
for each paper type you use and keep everything up to date. Ian Lyons has
a review on his web site.
