Wouldn't practically all printers do middle grey with only black ink/toner/whatever, thus having very little chance of having any color cast? Considering how color temp adjustment is not very exact thing to start with, I feel that generic printout should be good enough for most uses. And for color critical work, you'll want a full color swatch (eg colorchecker) anyways instead of just middle grey.
- incrudible 5y agoI don't know the impact of this, but: - there is no such thing as perfectly black ink - color printers will mix color ink into greyscale printouts
- Doxin 5y agoA "fun" workaround would be to print a very high resolution black-and-white checkerboard. Printers generally have plenty of resolution to make that appear as gray even to the naked eye. Of course managing to print something like that without something in the pipeline trying to anti-alias stuff and introduce gray back is left as an exercise to the reader.
