Judy,
I'm the worst person in the world to talk to about color management. I
truly believe there are only two people on the planet who actually
understand it...and they're copulating in an asylum at this very moment.
And even in their free time, they are incapable of explaining it to the
average Photoshop user. Ha!

Used to be that the "best" way to calibrate was to run a test on the
output device and then make that image on your screen look just like it
printed. From then on, you'd be pretty confident that your images would
come out (on that same printer) like they appeared on your monitor. That
still works today but the new "device independent" scheme is supposed to
make life easier for us all. Eventually it will; for now it's very
confusing for many, myself included.
