Thanks, David & Chas, for your input. I appreciate it. With a bit of perseverance, I located the generic profiles that were bundled with my printer. Although I loaded them in the ColorSync utility (did I mention that I am a Mac user?), they failed to pop up in the PSE printer profile drop-down menu. Then it occurred to me to load the profiles in the Adobe application support folder in the main library. Viola! The generic profiles are now in the printer profile menu.
I just need to do a bit of experimentation to see whether the generic profile is acceptable. If not, I will opt for a custom profile.
I have to admit that educating myself about color management has been an interesting journey. There have been a few speed bumps but, nevertheless, it has been satisfying. Andrew Rodney's book has really helped to cut through the conflicting information & subjective opinions.
Thank you, everyone, for your patience & help. I'll be back.
