I tried reinstalling my printer driver, and this gave me all of the proper Canon paper options in Photoshop when I set the color management to "Photoshop manages colors." Before, I was just letting the printer manage the colors since I didn't have the option for this Canon paper in Photoshop. I messed around with my printer settings a little more.
All the Canon paper profiles are installed within it, and it's far less onerous to setup than using Lightroom's Print Module, which has settings in many different areas that can easily be overlooked. The other thing you can try is downloading Canon's Print Studio. Also make sure to select between gloss and matte in the Lightroom print module.

After installing the drivers for my printer, I was able to select exact profiles for the Canon's paper - i.e., Luster, semi-gloss, Platinum, etc. Like I said above, generally speaking, the colours should be pretty close to what you see on your calibrated monitor, even with no soft proofing done.Īre you making sure that everything is properly set in Lightroom's print module? Make sure that in Printer Settings you've selected Luster, and that on the far right of the screen you've chosen the correct ICC profile for the paper. You say that you're using Canon's Luster paper. I always follow up by asking them if they compared the print's colours side-by-side with their image shown on their monitor the differences are more noticeable when viewed together. I've had several friends who've recently bought printers tell me they don't soft proof and that their prints look fine. I'd say that people can generally get away without soft proofing their images if they are using glossy, semi-glossy, or baryta paper, but I'd still advise against it.
Soft proofing in Lightroom gets me within the 95% range with my prints, especially when using Hahnemuehle's William Turner matte photo paper. I've found it works better than my old Spyder system.

I'm using the X-Rite i1Display system for my iMac Pro and Dell 5K monitor.
