Thanks, Chris
Are any of the other printer manufacturers any better?

Unfortunately it's probably not going to work. ColorSync is broken in
Epson's OS X drivers. Theoretically what you mentioned should work,
however
in reality, it's not going to. I have a 7600 that I've tried with the
OSX
driver and the ColorSync color management option. I get the same
results
with ColorSync turned on as I do with No Color Management selected.
I just spoke with Epson tech support today about this. Sadly, there's
no one
at Epson who will help you with anything related to color management,
at
least that's what I was told. As long as the machine puts ink on paper
and
the paper comes out the other end, thats all their concerned about.
In fact, I was told that Apple is considering releasing a G5 that will
boot
into OS9 as a workaround for the plethora of printing and print driver
related issues.

Hi Folks,
I have a custom profile which I use with great success with my Epson
870 and Ilford Galerie Classic Pearl Paper. I apply this in Photoshop
(or elements) while printing, and set the epson driver (non- gimp) to
"No Color Adjustment". I would like to use this profile when printing
from iPhoto, or other applications which to not let you directly
control output color profiles.
If I set the epson printer driver to "Colorsync", where does it get
the
profile? If I set the default device profile in Colorsync Utility to
my custom profile, or create a filter which applies my custom profile,
will this end being applied by the printer if I choose the colorsync
option in the printer ?
I am using Mac OS X 10.3.1
Cheers,
Drew
