I picked up on something from CD Tobie a week or so ago and forgot to ask about it - he mentioned or implied that the target profile print should be done with the rendering intent set to what you plan on using - ie Saturation.. i was under the impression at ALL image profiles need to be off/disabled ... etc.. could David M or CDT please confirm...

That makes sense and is what I have been doing and getting great 
prints - the only problem I have had is that in the dark shadow areas 
(in a baseball player photo w/ hat on) under the hat - shadow on the 
forehead - I am getting problems w/ Yellow hue's to the shadow and 
the print looks like it maybe has too much ink in that area.. not 
usre if that makes sense - is that what bronzing is? this is on prem 
glossy paper..
