Also, using my other available profiles, saturation intent and
perceptual intent are extremely similar while with the PrintFixPro
generated profiles they are dramatically different. To me that
suggests there is the possibility that some change in the ICC
generated would solve this problem in a good way.
Then someone who is looking for the other type of results would be equally unhappy, because we had turned their taxicabs lemon yellow. Thats why there are different intents, for different uses. Unfortuantely Adobe assumes they know which intents "matter" and has simplified Lightroom to the point of not offering what you need. I suspect this will change in the future, as they have gotten quite a bit of critical feedback on the matter.
My preferred solution is to bring colors in-gamut prior to printing myself, the way I want them, instead of sending out-of-gamut colors to the profile, and hoping it will automatically do what I want it to with all of them.
