Color management help

Guys,
Amature in colour management workflow in development..
I have just purchased my first A3+ printer (Epson 2880) with the view of printing large format prints for my pano's. I have found the issue of prints looking washed-out when printed compared to what is displayed on the LCD screen an issue. I would like to seek some of your thoughts on what experiences people have had with colour calibration utilities and appropriate workflows.
I'm shooting a combination of Jpeg-fine and RAW with a Nikon D90, editing with Adobe Elements (on Vista) and obviously printing on the new Epson 2880. I understand that this is a common issue, and I'm on a quick learning curve reading all I can familiarising with ICC profiles sRGB and Adobe RGB etc, however some people may have 'been there done that!'. Also is the investment in a clorimeter the best way to go? Note I'm familiar with the configuration control points (camera, photoshop E and printer), I guess finding what has worked well for you would be good!
Your thoughts (and links) are greatly appreciated.. in antisipation.
