Default ICC Color Profile with Cut Studio?

I assume Cut Studio does not handle ICC color profiles in it's print & cut settings, but what is the best way to print with an ICC profile then cut in Cut Studio? The only thing I can think of is to print from Cut Studio to a PDF file, open the PDF file in Photoshop, print in Photoshop with the ICC profile then cut in Cut Studio. Does anyone use this work flow or have another suggestion?

Thanks,
Lloyd

I thought ICC profiles were just for printing?

Isn't cut studio for cutting vinyl? It doesn't seem like you'd need an ICC profile for that?

I would like to be able to do a print and cut on opaque transfer paper or even cut around my light transfer paper with the Roland cutter but I prefer to print with and ICC profile to get the best color. Any ideas?

Thanks,
Lloyd

Other than your method, the only other thing would be if you were using a RIP to print instead of the standard print driver that would override the settings in CutStudio. MultiRIP (MultiRIP Screen Printing, Sublimation, Transfers, Photograph and General Printing RIP Software) will do this, but it does not work on all types of printers.
