Digital BW, The Print

I got my Printer set up with CIS and things work great.
I followed the instruction for 3MK printing from QTR.
Works fine from Photoshop CS, but I am unable to print
from Lightroom.  Is this normal? Within Lightroom after I
go through the setup and print dialog, it complains about
missing profiles.  I would just like to know if anyone can
print 3-MK from Lightroom.

Thanks,
Tai West

TAi,

Yes, you need an eye-one or other spectrophotometer to obtain the Lab  
data needed to make the profile.  An alternative would be to select  
printer management (no profile) in Lightroom and in the QTR print  
dialog select your 3MK profile as usual.  This would be similar to  
printing in CS with no color management.
