I don't really trust the soft proof in ImagePrint! Be sure to copy your
display profile into the IP Color Folder so you can load it in the "System"
pane of the software. Your preview in IP will be much closer but there is
still a difference in how the two applications preview data. There is a
slight density difference between the two, almost like IP is using some form
of "Paper White/Ink Black" but not exactly like Photoshop.

One way would be to run the profiles in Photoshop and save out the file
untagged. Then in the "Bitmap" pane in ImagePrint, set it to "None" which
then takes the raw data in the untagged file and passes it through the RIP
without regard to the paper profile you set in "System" pane. I haven't
tried this but it should work.
