I have a new Epson R2000 and my prints are too dark.  How do I get WYSIWYG?

I have turned off the color management on the R2000 and set Elements 10 to optimize for prints.  I am trying to get WYSIWYG.  This is complicated by a new LG Flatron IPS235 monitor.  It is supposed to have the best factory calibrated color and Fry's Electronics said that it would be the truest, full range color.  I have tried changing the mode to sRGB, photo mode, and user mode and the prints are always too dark.  I would appreciate any help I can get.  I am a scrapbooker working on photos of my world travel bucket list.  At the rate I am going, I will kick the bucket before I get any photos printed.   THANKS!

  This goes against everything I have read about being sure that Photoshop controls the color. 
Well, one can't believe eveything one reads. This problem comes up now and then on the forum pages, and we have been recommending to have the printer manage color, certainly not both PSE and the printer.
I have Epson and Lexmark printers, and I have it set up to let the printer manage color.
Works well on both units.
Thanks for getting back to us.
