[Openicc] Is CUPS the right place for printer color management...

Chris -

 Ok. Could someone please find a solution on OS X?
 And can one please sure that this mess does not occur on Linux?
 I simply don't understand any of this well enough to argue about the
subtleties. But a flowchart/diagram would sure help !!!!

 All I do know is that we know we can linearize and profile any
printer we can get our hands on, and print pretty decently, so if you
guys can pass our canned print settings back to us and apply our
profiles the prints will look good enough for any amateur or pro
photographer or art repro shop with a nice Epson. This is going to be
a big step up from the current default Gutenprint behavior, because
prosumers will get immediate access to good wide-gamut settings
