Choosing the right Input ICC

[pstrwks]

A recent Demo on the Epson GS6000 highlighted the importance of getting the Input ICC right. I have always used the ISO coated v4 to get accurate colour.
Prints lack POP and I'm looking to find out what you think about
ONYXCMY.ICC as an input profile. It looks much bigger on the gammut map.
Will it give better results with more POP?

The right input profile is the same one the customer (or you) used when it was designed.

If you want more "POP", then just assign different profiles in the creative application until you see something that looks like you want.
