I dont have the 2200, but various Epson printers and a Roland wide
format all work quite well using colorsync profiles. I saw a
significant improvement after I got a screen calibration package. I got
the basICColor squid package. I've also had profiles done to printer /
paper combinations by outside services and use canned profiles.
It's not exact, but puts me very close so that one proof and then after
a slight adjustment go for the print.
I've had some problems printing out of OSX, but have left the print
server on OS9.
I use the photoshop print settings for colorsync and turn it off in the
print driver and this works very well.
From your post it seems you either turned everything off or had the
colorsync kick in twice, hence the magenta.
The Roland has it's own rip (OS9), but the profile conversion works
quite well.
I just have difficulty profiling the Roland without an expensive rip
software.
Hope this helps.

When I try to print the same image using the Epson 2200 with
colorsync, the color is off, usually on the too much magenta side. In
PhotoShop, the Conversion options Engine = ColorSync and the color
sync options are selected in the Epson printer driver. I am using
Epson papers and inks - and the newest versions of Epson's drivers. I
can not get colorsync to work correctly on the Epson 2200. So, the
Canon works, the Epson doesn't work.
When I turn off all colorsync options in Phtotshop and use the
Conversion Engine = Adobe ACE and "No Color Adjustment" in the printer
driver (Epson help file recommends not to do this but Epson Tech
support suggested I do), it works. It's not perfect but I can live
with it and compensate for it on my own to produce good output >
product.
After reading the correspondence on this site and my own experiences
thus far, it seems that color management as advertised by the
manufactures is all bunk
