[PRODIG] Quark and Color Management

[Mark Johann]

I've been trying to get our Canon/Fiery printer to print cmyk files out 
of Quark, so that they at least match the printed results from 
Photoshop 6.x/7.x.  I can get a relatively neutral rgb out of Quark 
with the printer's default settings, but anything in cmyk gets wacked.

I've tried creating a profile for it with EyeOne Match, but can't find 
a place to use it within the printer dialog boxes (Adobe PS) or 
Colorwise with any success.  I've tried using it with the Colorsync 
color matching option (choosing the profile), and turning all cmyk 
simulations OFF, but the prints are terrible.  I get good results using 
the same profile as the printer profile within Photoshop and all 
simulations off.

Obviously, there are many factors working against me; 1. Quark's lack 
or poor use of color management,  2. working with the RIP/Colorwise in 
creating the profile,  3. lack of expertise,  4. all of the above.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
