It's a very in depth complex module on it's own but worth learning if the aim is to produce high end prints.
But it's fairly straight forward after a while when people get use to it.
I mainly use the better pro labs, although I print my own stuff which I only find fairly acceptable even on decent paper.
I find though printing my own stuff rather time consuming, limited and not really cost effective in the long run.
