Thanks Dave - the same to you.

If you're using printer profiling, you can get an idea of what the final print will look like by using Photoshop's proof option. You need to set the proofing to the printer profile you use. You can also see any parts of the print that are out of the printer's gamut. Be warned, though - you'll be disappointed with the flat looking colours when you toggle proofing, but when you look at the final print it will be OK. It's basically a matter of the white on the monitor being brighter than that of the paper.
