Wow,
just found something very weird...
took another file to check if the printer was having any nozzle issues. when I pressed S for soft proofing it showed the PRO38 profile, that had been missing before, but when i selected that, the colors were fine. then I switched to the one I had created years ago for this paper, the colors were totally out of whack. and get this... the PRO38 profile was gone from the list...
will report further
