With a Pixma Pro-100 are the printer drivers for Canon Photo Paper Glossy Gold the same as Glossy ll

I'm using a PRO-100 printer with Mac Big Sur. When I print with Canon Photo Paper Glossy ll there are no print drivers shown for that paper - only for Photo Paper Glossy Gold. Are they interchangeable?

Do you have the Canon IJ Series driver installed?


What printing software are you using?

Using PRO-100 series CUPS Printer Driver Ver.16.50.0.0 (Mac) and printing directly from Photoshop Elements 2021.

Here is what I see in Lightroom.

Maybe try reinstalling the driver and re-adding the printer.

 

I do not see the Gold option.

Thanks John. Still no luck.

In Lightroom, try selecting Printer Manages Color vs selecting a profile in LrC and see what you get.

When I select "printer Manages Color" no profiles are shown other than Adobe RGB (1998). I'm not using Lightroom. I'm using Photoshop Elements 2021.

I don't have Elements.

 

Is there a button for printer setup

No button in PSE for printer setup

Photoshop shows this in print dialogue when I select Print Settings.
