Title:
  colord rejects printer .ICC color profile

Status in Colord:

Status in “colord” package in Ubuntu:

Bug description:
  Hi,

  At work I have access to an expensive professional photo spectrometer
  to calibrate input and output devices in terms of color, Gretag
  Macbeth (now X-Rite) Spectrolino and Spectroscan, and i1 (Eye  One).

  I have profiled my monitors (currently either Dell P2210 or Samsung
  SyncMaster 950p+) with them, and the monitor .ICC works perfectly well
  not only under Windows, but also under Linux Mint 16 Petra 64 Bit (all
  updates are installed).

  But not so the printer profile. No matter whether I try to import the
  ICC for the printer (trusty old HP Laserjet 4P) that I have created
  from a print under Linux or the one I have created from a print under
  Windows, colord rejects them with the cryptic error message "invalid
  UTF-8". This happens when I start "color" over the "settings" dialog
  panel.

  When I try to import the ICC with right click on the file and select
  "import with ICC profile installation" a couple of seconds nothing
  happens, then I get the even stranger error message "File could not be
  imported / The profile was not added in time".

  Again, gthe .ICC itself is pefectly sane and works flawlessly under
  Windows 7 and 8.1. I created it with the professional software
  "Profile Maker 5" from Gretag Macbeth.

  Thanks for your help.
  Oliver
