Hello Todd,

There is no way to use a device link profile in Photoshop, so indeed your RIP would have to support it.

There is no internal support to use DeviceLink profiles in Photoshop, true.
But there are different extensions available, basICColor demon just to name
one, that gives access to DeviceLinks in Photoshop.


...
Device link profiles are for going from CMYK to CMYK

This is an outdated view, and true, some profile creation tools are restricted to that.
DeviceLinks can link all kind of color spaces, so RGB -> CMYK is possible.
One of the key benefits that DeviceLink profiles have is the optimized gamut
mapping, as source and destination space are well known at profile
creation time. So most transforms using DeviceLinks are much superior
to traditional "normal" profile conversions.
