I am pretty sure there is one default location, and the very location
of which is most likely saved somewhere in the registry. A quick
googling seemed to reveal that it indeed is
C:\Windows\System32\spool\drivers\color that is the "correct"
location. (as it seems to have been in xp too?)

sure, this bug report is more or less the result of "monkey testing"
of my part, i.e. I was just clicking around more or less randomly when
I happened to notice this one.
