From reading numerous threads, it's been beaten into me that we should let the PP software handle the color management and make sure not to color manage both in the PP software and in your printer driver settings to get the best results:

1. Set software to color manage
2. Choose the printer profile you want
3. Print driver settings -> turn off printer color management
4. Print

Does anyone know if this workflow would yield the same results? I have an Epson R1800 if that helps. The difference I'm trying to point across is setting the color management in the printer driver settings (see screen capture) vs. in the PP software:

1. Set software to let printer color manage
2. Print driver settings -> turn on printer color management
3. Printer driver settings -> choose the printer profile you want

I realized one thing with the second work flow - my printer driver only has an input profile for sRGB which means the prints will get all screwed up if I'm working in proPhoto colorspace.
