Digital BW, The Print

Hi Scott.  What workflow are you using?

I had in the PS CS print/preview box - Adobe 98 as document space (or 
GG2.2, then I select the actual 4000 enhanced matt profile as the 
print space.  Then switch off all colour management in the printer 
driver.

When I tried it in reverse.  ie, select 'printer colour management'in 
the PS print dialog box, then select the ICM option in the printer 
driver settings, I got freakish magenta or olive prints - way wrong.

Could you explain your methods?

Thanks

Steve
