The intent of the International Color Consortium (R) profile format is to provide a cross-platform device profile format. Device profiles can be used to translate color data created on one device into another device's native color space. The acceptance of this format by operating system vendors allows end users to transparently move profiles and images with embedded profiles between different operating systems. This permits tremendous flexibility to both users and vendors. For example, it allows users to be sure that their image retains its color fidelity when moved between systems and applications. Furthermore, it allows a printer manufacturer to create a single profile for multiple operating systems. (Quoted from the http://www.color.org) PhaserMatch and PhaserCal 4.0 User Guide A-2

Densitometer
A device that measures the density of colors or images. PhaserMatch
does not support any densitometer.
Device Link Profiles
ICC profiles that describe the color behavior of two CMYK devices: your
Xerox Phaser printer and a target device, such as a printing press or a
proofing device. These two profiles are combined together into a single
file. Creating link profiles or editing existing link profiles lets you alter the
colors printed by your Xerox printer so they more closely match the colors
produced by the output device of your choice.
