Epson Paper Profiles for Pro 1100

I replaced Epson 3880 with Cano Pro 1100. I cannot find Epson Hot Press Bright profile for Canon 1100. Any idea why?  I'm also willing to use a comparable matte paper that if anyone has a recommendation.  Thank you.

Since both Canon and Epson have their own brand papers you will rarely find cross-brand profiles. Folks frequently get good results by choosing a media type and ICC profile for a similar paper by the other company. A bright smooth surface Canon paper you could try selecting would be Photo Paper Pro Luster. 

Something else you could try would be “working backwards “. Find a third party paper that recommends using the Epson paper setting and then see what Canon setting they recommend  

If you have enough paper to make it worthwhile you could have a custom profile created.

Thank you. This makes sense, since I was able to download Hahnemuehle profiles for Canon. Fortunately, my 3880 is still chugging along, and will use that to finish up two boxes of Epson Hot Press Bright. I'll check out the Pro Luster meanwhile. Jill
