I just successfully tested it. Worked properly, amazingly enough.
I used Argyll to convert a picture of a ColorChecker Passport to a previously-built profile for the printer. Printed perfectly with ColorSync utility. I then tagged that same (converted) picture with BetaRGB. The onscreen version is super saturated in ColorSync utility, but it, too, printed properly.
For the record, this is El Capitan printing to a Canon iPF8100, everything updated to the latest whatever as of now.
So, there would seem to be two answers. One is Graeme's null transform -- of ensuring that the selection for the printer profile matches whatever the image is tagged with. That seems to work regardless of application, printer, whatever. The other is ColorSync Utility.
It really shouldn't be this hard. Simply adding a "target mode" option to the standard print dialog box should be it. And if Joe Sixpack selects it and can't figure out why his colors don't look right and that he should go back to the default, I've got no sympathy. Hell, even make it non-sticky unless part of a saved preset -- that would solve all the "don't confuse people" objections.
Cheers,
