how to print something in CMYK on a Windows CMYK printer.

ah, windows printers and cmyk ... well ... to truely use a cmyk printer on windows as a cmyk device, you either have to use a RIP and feed it a cmyk source file (eg cmyk tiff), or write your own driver. why is this? cause the only standard interface to a printer under windows (ie, GDI) only handles rgb (and if anybody knows otherwise, I'd really like to know about how)

is it possible to convert a monitor RGB value to printer RGB

this would just be normal work for an CMS package. lcms does this fine.
