Martin,
What method did you use to "neuter" the printer driver.  I've never gotten the
color balance quite right on my Canon i9900.  In PE(3) I have:

Color management set to Manual
ICM is NOT selected
Source space is sRGB (Minolta Scanner)
Print Space: Canon SP1 or the even more cyptic name for the Ilford paper.

The monitor is calibrated with an Optix calibrator.  Probably the Epson crowd is
snickering at me.

Jay - partially color blind but can still see it's wrong.
