You will need to set up a properly managed system to work effectively fro PS or LR.
What OS are you using?
Is your monitor calibrated and what type is ir?

 

Normally I use color managed printing (i.e. Color Management button selected, ICM profile set to off, appropriate profile for paper chosen in Photoshop), and get pretty reliable results with Photoshop CS and PSE.

Sometimes there seems to be images it just doesn't get right, though, and for those I usually punt and print with the Epson driver doing 'Color Controls', and the 'Epson Standard' color mode and it seems to do a better job with those problem images.

One thing I have noticed is that if I don't double-check to make sure the gamma is set to 2.2 (I'm on Windows), otherwise the images do tend to be dark and muddy.

I'm assuming you're using the Epson papers? I know the pigment based inks the R800, R1800, etc. use are quite a bit more restrictive on the papers used.

Hope this helps!
