That is already implemented from HP Z3100 and on
Printer linearizes each of 11 ink channel on demand by printing and then automatically measuring a special built-in color chart. It is called Color Calibration in their menu. It is recommended to perform that calibration with each new roll of paper for consistency of results. It also provides consistency of results on the same paper between different machines.
Color Calibration (Ink channel linearization) is a routine that is different from paper profiling.
How long do we want our images to last ?
There are OBA free cotton rag papers out there.
Isn't that true for any type of image?
There are 2 more issues with ink-jet prints on papers with glossy surfaces:
* Bronzing
* Gloss differential
Both are more or less solved in HP Z printers by using the 12th totally transparent ink called Gloss Enhancer. Printer/Driver allows to specify and fine-tune the max amount of that transparent ink depending on the kind of paper. Once the max amount (or limit) is determined and set, the driver intelligently applies the Gloss Enhancer in accordance with the amount of other inks density sprayed to the surface, making the resulting gloss of the entire print surface look uniform. Also helps to make the printed area look evenly glossy with the non-printed area (borders) of the paper surface
