for enthusiasts and other non-professionals, the standard profiles are pretty good. I don't feel any compelling need to get printer calibration hardware/software for my s800.

Well Kiwi,
not everyone has the knowledge to explain all these facts cos even the printer selller themselve may not have the aquired facts of the various printing technologies. I only master it due to 3 years of proper education in prepress technology. Even after leaving school, some people may not even know the terms well because them seldom make use of it. Juggling between graphic design and photography, I have the benefits of using the various printing techniques over the years. That why I can explain to you now. Well, if you need help regarding any printing, be it photographic or prepress, feel free to approach me and I see what I can do to help.
