operator wants, frequently not very good. The printer doesn't need the
profile, but by using it, you can see what you're going to get. I rarely
buy prints, but the few times I have the profile seemed to be an
advantage.
You can get the same thing by setting your workspace to sRGB.
Really, if you think it makes a difference, go hard, but you are imagining
it.
I spent a very long time running these machines.
I know how photo lab stuff works.
