Anybody have good luck with printing from LR? All my prints are a bit grayish, olive color cast. Do I need to install an ICC printer profile for this or not?

Yes, you need the profiles for the printer.

I found a reasonable solution for the problem. But you are right I need to select a color profile instead of manage by printer. ImageSpectrum is sending me a new profile I will try it out as well. Thank you very much for your response.

ImageStrectrum sent me an ICC profile for the printer. The prints are amazing now. Now that is customer service.
