Ken,
Printers like this typically don't ship with profiles and even if they do they are usually of pretty mediocre quality. Typically color mgmt on these printers in the drivers is ususally a choice of a few RGB color spaces if your lucky or options like "good" and "better" if your not. If you do have the option of printing to an RGB color space try and make sure your doc's are in that color space, or if you're printing out of PS set the output profile to the same thing as the Printer Color Space option and that should at least get you in the right ballpark. You could go the custom profile route but these printers are likely to drift a fair amount so I'm not sure how much of a return on your investment you would get. I think the bottom line is that these printers are really built on the idea of "office" color, not real accurate color. You may be able to find a similar ICC profile from one of it's big brother in the CLP series, they may have ICC profiles in the driver downloads with these, but I'm not sure how close the engines are to the one you have. If you really need a good cheap laser for color Xerox has some good options.
Good Luck.
- Thanks
