1 capture a screngrab
2 open in photoshop
3 uprez to the size of your oringinal file
4 use the selection tools to select all the gamut warning areas
[colour range might do it very easily]
5 now save the selection as a channel mask and drag it to the original
image.
6 load the selection (in the new image).
(since you're just dragging a selection the earlier uprez shouldn't
matter unless the gamut warning was incredibly detailed.)
7 make a new layer in your original file and fill it with a colour of
your choice, add a layer mask
8 the selection should be applied to the mask you made, so now you
havbe it right or have to go back and invery the selection before
adding the mask.
(I'm sure someone will correct [improve] my selection application to
mask method but , hey, the idea should work??)
you can now have semi transparent gamut warning if you like.
9 print
easy eh?

right, you can't do that - unless you can set your printer CMYK as
default of course, doesn't work with RGB.
