[colord] Dye Sub Printer Profiling

Hi,

I have a problem with applying ICC profiles with several dye sub printers (DNP, Mitsi, Sinfonia) and hoping someone can offer a little insight. I’m running a headless Debian Buster CUPS 2.3.1-11./Gutenprint 5.3.4/Colord 1.4.3-4 server. 

Colord recognizes the profiles I’ve added and I’m able to add profiles to the device:

               /usr/share/color/icc/colord/DS620_Metallic_Plus.icm
Metadata:      OwnerCmdline=/usr/sbin/cupsd -l  


In my tests, I have changed the default ICC from DS620_cAM.icc to DS620_Metallic_Ultra.icm, which should significantly increase saturation, but see no difference in output.
