Thanks Roy.


Number 1, I was using relative colormetric intent.
Number 2, BPC was off

I will try again with perceptual intent if I can ever get the printer to print black ink 
again!  Very frustrating.

PS. I'm curious. Why does this profile require perceptual intent?  I didn't think that 
relative colormetric remapped the black or white points.
