Some installed inks cannot be controlled via the Output Profile

Problem/Question

When printing an Ink Assignment Chart, not all inks contained in the printer are output. These missing colors cannot be calibrated as part of the Output Calibration. Why is this the case?


Solution/Work-Around
Due to manufacturer restrictions, some Contone (HTM) drivers, such as that of Epson SC-V7000, can only control Process Colors via the Color Profile. The printer itself controls and applies the remaining print colors.
