I1profiler 3.6.2 Official
| Area | Change | |------|--------| | Operating system | Native support for macOS 14 Sonoma and Windows 11 23H2 | | Driver interface | Removed legacy 32-bit dependencies (cleaner installs) | | Chart recognition | Improved barcode reading on printed patch sheets (auto-detects chart type) | | CMYK profile size | Option for “Small” (500KB), “Medium” (1.5MB), “Large” (5MB) – useful for RIPs with memory limits | | Logging | Silent debug logging can be enabled via config file (support only) |
Version 3.6.2 reduces the margin of error when scanning printed color charts. The "Adaptive Patch Reading" feature now uses AI to ignore dust specks, paper texture interference, and ambient light spills, resulting in smoother printer gradients.

Fix: This is often a USB bandwidth issue. Close Chrome and any video streaming apps. Use a USB 2.0 port (black plastic), not USB 3.0 (blue plastic), as the i1Pro has firmware timing issues on 3.0 ports.
