Recently I bought an Canon TS705 printer, because I could not find a suitable ID Card tray for my Epson SC P900 printer (despite it supports printing on CD/DVD discs).
Unfortunately the standard setting by the Canon printer was suboptimal: colours are washed out and greys have a brownish look, despite using original Canon Chromalife inks with the setup cartridges.
So I generated a 140 patch target to be printed on 2 PVC printable ID cards:
As you can see the greys are indeed printed with a brownish hue (color management: off).
See here the effect of the special profile on the picture below: upper card is printed with the standard Canon setting (color management done by the Canon printable tray driver) and the lower card is printed with colours corrected with the specially made ID-card printer profile:
