How to configure the printer driver to use ICC profile with a Pixma Pro-100 on Mac 10.14 and more?

Hi,

 

I use a MacBook Pro with macOS 10.14 and a Canon Pixma Pro-100.

 

I bought a sample pack from Hahnemühle and I installed the ICC profiles to test the paper, but I don't know how to configure the driver to use the profile because the Canon documentation is too old.

 

Here my questions :

 

  1. I use Apple Photos to print my pictures. Do I need to select the profile in Color Matching > ColorSync?

  2. There some ICC profile for Hahnemühle papers on the Canon web site and others on the Hahnemühle web site : which one I must use (the Canon ones or the Hahnemühle ones) ?
  3. How I must configure the Printer Features section? I don't see the Hahnemühle ICC profiles in ProfileID and I'm not sure how configure other elements.

OK, thanks!

 

I did a test with the demo of QImage and the result is good (no magenta cast).

I use Lightroom and Qimage with great results.

 

Since its seems to be working for you that is the way to go.

 

Perhaps Photos doesn't allow third party paper profiles.

Read the paragraph above green Canon Printer Driver text.

Thank you very much!

 

I will buy QImage. The user interface is not really good, but the product work!
