Profile the Samsung clp-315:

description

printer-profile prints a test chart, uses the ColorMunki instrument to scan it in, then computes an ICM profile using the Argyll Color Management System.

Manuf is "sam". Model is "clp-300" or "clp-315".
Manuf is "hp". Model is "2600" or "cp1215".
Manuf is "km". Model is "2300" or "2530".
Manuf is "dell". Model is "1355".

"rgb" is the usual setting. "patches" is a multiple 196 per page.

Edit the script for additional models.
