- The terms i1, i1Pro, i1Pro 2, i1Pro 3 and Eye-One are generally interchangeable.
- The term i1iO includes the inserted i1 and can mean either a first- second- third generation (“2” and "3") model.
- The term offline distinguishes portable spectrophotometers from inline spectrophotometers installed in some proofers.

Devices not supported
● X-Rite i1Pro 2, and i1Pro 3
● X-Rite i1iO2, and i1iO3 automated scanning table
...
● Inline SpectroProofer (ILS, ILS30)
● X-Rite i1iSis and i1iSis XL automated chart readers
● X-Rite DTP 70
Note: When you use the Epson Stylus Pro WT7900 without white ink, you can use any of the spectrophotometers supported for Matchprint Inkjet printers.
Be extra careful when you measure white ink printed by surface mode on media. In this case you measure the ink on media, and it is easy to scratch the white ink with the spectrophotometer.
For example, with an X-Rite i1iO, position the arm high enough to ensure that the i1 does not scratch the white ink while it measures.
You may want to avoid using the X-Rite i1 when you measure white ink printed by surface mode because it is difficult to avoid scratching the white ink.
