Help! Printing to an R1800 - what profile?


Yet another emergency question from me. (sorry)

I still can\'t get my Epson R1800 to print the correct colors & saturation.

I\'m working in PS CS2, on a Mac.

I have learned to change all my pics to embedded sRGB, so they look correct on friends\' Windows pc\'s. I bought a calibration kit for my LCD, so I am close enough for my needs.

I\'m using an Epson R1800, with Epson Premium Luster paper

I found that Epson finally came out with a new Leopard-compatible driver this year, so my old printer woes are gone. I also downloaded / installed the Epson premium profiles, which are specifically for PS.

So far so good.
----------------------------

However, while my prints are a lot closer to correct than last year (driver issue) they are still far from correct. I simply chose the \"print using embedded profile\" command in CS2, which obviously was a mistake.

What would be the safest method to follow, printing from within CS2?

-thanks
