Here's an unsophisticated approach that I use to tame one of my printers using third party inks:
I simply converted a photo to B&W, then used a curves layer to get the thing to print as neutral as possible. I saved the curve, and load it in on any picture associated with that printer and those inks.
I usually need very few tweaks, on a couple of test prints, to get a final result that's acceptable to me.

The fountain of knowledge has failed me miserably. I have just been given an Olympus P400 dye sub printer, and have a few questions.... The colour coming off it is not quite right (no surprise), but the profiling available in the driver seems rather crude. The fellow who gave it to me suggested that I should set up a profile for it, he implied using Photoshop for this, but didn't know how to do this. Any answers? Thanks
