You can choose between perceptual and relative colorimetric rendering (each will be subtly different) and the Simulate Paper & Ink check box better emulates both the paper colour and the tonal range of the printer profile. This enables the screen image to simulate the print. Lightroom will then convert on the fly from its internal colour space to the profile you’ve chosen and then onwards to the monitor profile, rather than direct from the internal space to the monitor. You can select sRGB, Adobe RGB, a printer profile or choose to load another ICC profile. Simply go to the View menu and Soft Proofing, Show Proof, or check the soft-proofing check box underneath the image, or just hit the ’s’ key. You will get a chance to see how colour changes before you use paper and ink. Soft-proofing is simply previewing how an image will reproduce before actually printing. You will need a well calibrated and profiled monitor to get the most out of this feature. After you have edited the image so it appears as you want it to on screen you can then use the soft-proofing feature to check how it will actually print. The first place that Lightroom allows you to use a printer profile is not in the Print module, but in Develop.

You will of course need good printer profiles for the papers that you are using (and of course good inkjet papers). Adobe Lightroom offers you some excellent colour management features to help you get the most pleasing and colour accurate inkjet prints.
