You need to isolate your source side from your output side. Calibrate your
monitor with a hardware device, and (after any other import corrections you
may wish to apply) correct the color as needed by eye and eyedropper on
screen in your RGB workingspace. Then you have a universal workingspace image
that is no longer source dependant, and should print similarly to any other
image that looks correct on screen. This is (simplisticly) the end of any
source effect on the image...
Then you use a good profile for the output device of your choice, and should
get a reasonable representation of that monitor image in print... without c
onsideration of source; the workingspace is now the source.
