You probably want to include the appropriate Postscript snippets to set
the colour correction mode in the printer appropriately for your
document.

You should be able to extract the details from the PPD or to set this is
the printer specific settings part of the print dialog.

Vivid colour mode, if the printer in question offers it[1], should give
you good results.
