Can't print what I see!

I'm having a problem getting my prints to match my screen. After all the editing in CS3 I go to print and the print preview shows a picture 2 stops lighter with a color shift. Proof colors shows just a minute color shift. ( to be expected )

1. The monitor is calibrated.
2. Printer profile: PRO38 PLPP (Epson 3800) W/Premium Luster Profile
3. No color adjustment.
4. Photoshop manages colors.
5. Document Profile Adobe RGB (1998)

Same picture converted to BW.
ABW preview also shows about a 1 to 2 stop lightening.

It's driving me nuts.

Can anyone help?

That ADOBE RGB is very misleading!! Try using the sRGB - I know what the advantages are from using ADOBE RGB - but by just changing the Color Profile improved my result dramatically.
