>If the print isn't what you think it should be you should be going back and editing the file until the print is right.
No arguments there and I didn't meant to suggest otherwise. If you want a print, then that is on paper. You have to persist until you get the print you want. The screen is not a print, but that said ...
With a screen like an Eizo which you can calibrate for print, i.e. by setting at D50 and dialing down brightness and contrast , you can get surprisingly close.

Or, I could select Application Managed color management and select the created ICC profile. My photo files could be tagged with any profile after that.
Personally I think it's important to understand the impact on the print of converting vs not converting, which is what I attempted to do in that blog post. I get the impression that Roy thinks that not converting is a non-standard and unnecessarily complex workflow, but I think it's likely to lead you to a different style of print, esp on matte, and the question is, what style do you want?
