Thanks for your insight in this matter! It is indeed an eye-opener to view this subject from a different viewpoint (i.e. that non-perfect colormatching is not the end of the world). Regardless (Programmers are stubborn people), I still want to get a bit closer to what I want to print...

O, darn, forgot to ask a calibration-related issue in my previous post; * When calibration software says "Don't f**k with your settings --> leave everything at default (to let the color profiling do all the color stuff)", does that mean "Leave the pictures to print in RGB&quot...

OK, thank you very much, I'm gonna try that. Just curious though, what happens if I do that while having a simple deskjet or something? Does the deskjet internally convert it to RGB first?

Thank you for your replies, I have one simple question now, how do I force photoshop to send as CMYK? I mean, just converting my RGB picture to CMYK using the "Image -> Mode" feature is not enough, I presume? Especially as I read that I need to send a PS file? How can I then easily...

Additional info, (RTFM) the manual has to say the following: (Quote:) "First, the RGB Source ICC profile translates RGB values of the color producing device (in this case a monitor) to the standard CIE LAB color model. Next, those CIE LAB model values are translated into a Simulation...

Sorry if it is something that is so simple, I couldn't find it; I read the FAQ's about printing (this forum, and googling for it), and think I now know quite well how printing works, and that RGB (screen) images must be converted to CMYK before printing, but that mostly the printers take care...
