Hi, I bought a sampler package of Hahnemuhle paper yesterday, and am, of
course, confused about how to set up colour profiles for it.
I downloaded the .icc files from their website and installed them into
the correct Windows directory (windoes/system32/Drivers/Colour) (or
whatever).
So, Photoshop seems to have access to the paper profiles, which is nice,
but when I go to set up the paper on the Epson, I don't have the new
papers available in the printer drop down.
Epson's documentation is less than helpful, and so I am turining to the
font of knowledge that is the PDML.
Hahnemühle's documentation is what's important in this case.
I've used their Photo Rag Smooth 308gsm mostly, with the R2400.

Page Setup: pick printer, paper size and feed type (rear slot, single
sheet, manual feed for the R2400)
Photoshop or Lightroom: pick HFA_Eps2400_MK_PhotoRag profile,
Perceptual or Relative Colormetric intent as the target paper
Print Driver setup: pick "Watercolor Paper - Radiant White" or
"Ultrasmooth Fine Art" paper types, Color, Color Settings "Off (No
color adjustment)", Advanced mode, Best Photo quality, disable High
Speed.

Should be similar for other Epson printers, and the verbiage should be
similar for Windows users too.
