Ah Ha!  *That* makes sense.  I'm sorry I didn't pick up on it before.  
I tend not to read about printers other than my own. (Too much  
temptation!)

I only chose colorsync to verify that there was no color management  
enabled...  only to discover that *some* management was automatically  
enabled.  What I did not understand until now is that it was the act  
of choosing Colorsync that switched on management.

Hmmm.  Why have I never been tempted to make this mistake when I print  
in Photoshop?
