I have been using Lightroom on a Mac for almost a year and it is great. I have hardly used the Print module, but printed from Photoshop with custom profiles to an Epson 4000.
However, I now have a Canon IPF 6100 printer and want to take advantage of the templates in Lightroom for printing multiple images on roll paper.
For colour management I can use 'manage by printer' and set colour controls to Colorsynch, and all is ok. But when I want to print using profiles, custom or canned, the problems begin.
With the colour management set to one of the relevant profiles, and 'no colour control' set in the print driver, the profiles seem to be ignored and the print comes out all wrong! I have tried both rendering intents and difference is minimal.
The same print sent from Photoshop using the correct profile is fine. I have tried the same thing with the Epson printer with the same results, so it is not a printer specific problem.
Just to mention also that the profiles I am trying to use are specific to the printer in question.
I wish to use paper other than Canon, and want to create more profiles (X_RITE).
If anyone has any suggestions I would be eternally grateful!
Jim
By the way, I have scoured the forum for this problem and have taken on board the advice, which mostly involves "Make sure and disable the colour controls in the driver".
