Pleased to hear you are working with PFP. As for Lightroom, its a strange 
situation; there's no way to turn off the "flavoring" to print a profiling 
target, but whether custom profiles (built from targets printed from Photoshop or 
PFP, NOT from Lightroom) print properly from an image in that "flavored" 
workflow is an open question... it depends on a number of factors, certainly the 
settings you use (some settings simply aren't available in Lightroom) and I 
suspect there may be a factor or two that haven't been disclosed yet. But yes, its 
possible get nice prints from it... if it does what you want. 

I believe users are printing a file from Photoshop, and the same file In 
Lightroom, and complaining that the two prints aren't identical, rather than 
editing in Lightroom, and complaining about the screen to print match. These are 
two different issues.
