Printers and scanners have color spaces too.
Yea, but a lot of people don't have those either. I have around 5K
servers in DCs with not a single printer or scanner in site. The vast
majority of the 4 million odd XOs out there while they have a screen
don't have a printer or scanner anywhere in sight.
