maybe i am completely wrong, but it seems to me that there is
uncertainty regarding color profiles now.  meaning, if you are not using
a specific chain of software that ends with a printer that has been
professionally installed and calibrated you are not getting color
management.  and this is a price we are paying because it was not set up
simple and easy to begin with.

feel free to correct me ....
