QTR-Quadtone RIP

Roy.  What does it boil down to for Window users who print through 
QTRgui?

I edit my images with softproof turned on using the profiles I created 
using QTR-Create-ICC-RGB and my calibrated monitor.  I save the final 
as a tiff and print through QTRgui applying the .QUAD file used to 
create the softproof profile.  I don't convert or tag my grayscale 
with any profile.  I edit with Picture Window Pro.

I get good matches between monitor and print (as good as can be 
expected between luminious monitor pixels and reflected light from the 
prints).  Have I been lucky or am I just not discerning? Am I missing 
something?
