Well, if you're doing high quality printing, you should calibrate 
each paper/ink/printer combination yourself. Don't rely on 
manufacturer profiles, they're not accurate enough. Each 
paper/ink/printer/lunar-cycle has its own strange permutations.

Printing profiling hardware/software is getting pretty cheap, under 
$300 last time I checked.
