Hi William,
I think the problem is not your printer Profile it is your Adobe 98 RGB as
Workspace. ASdobe 98 RGB is based on sRGB only the Green is changed. Your
Printers can print more than this Gamut. Try to use your Printer Profile as
Workspace in PS6.0 and you will see, that you come closer to your
printresults.
BEST regards
Ulf Grossmann

As I understand it, we are to adjust the printer profile to match more

printer profiles?

Would money be better spent on a profiling package like ColorBlind or

Is any one patch reader better, dollar for dollar, than another?
