Often you can find ICC profiles for specific papers on the paper manufacturers website. Hahnemühle, Innova, Epson, Oriental, Ilford, and many other paper manufacturers post ICC profiles on their websites. Make sure that the ICC profile you download is not only the correct profile for your paper but for your printer model as well. ICC profiles are specific to printer model, paper, inkset and most often print resolution as well.
I still can’t find a profile for the paper I want to use. What do I do now?
If you cannot find an ICC profile for your paper you have a couple of options.
1. Buy a spectrophotometer and profiling package and make your own. This will result in the most accurate profile since the profile will be made on your specific system.
2. Purchase a custom profile from a profiling service.
