Epson 120gsm Singleweight Matt Paper profile?
« on: January 19, 2026, 01:32:41 pm »

I can't seem to find a profile for Epson's Singleweight Matt Paper (rolls in a P20000) on Epson's maze of a website.
They bury all profiles deep in there, and once I navigated to them... its not there.
Can anyone suggest an alternative?

(It's in the media selection options, but no profile seems to exist)

A decent affordable 120gsm paper that am using for proof-of-concept at this point.
Have used it to make custom gift wrapping too.

Thanks!

For what printer? The profile should be installed by the print driver.

P20000, like it says in my post!

nope its not in the default installed profiles, unless they are using some funky alternative name for it?

Missing profiles may be due to where the Epson drivers install the ICC profiles and how. Epson should be placing the profiles in the path below, which ends up being deep inside a 'package' and difficult to get to:
/Library/Printers/EPSON/InkjetPrinter2/ICCProfiles/
IF you see a folder named ICCProfiles and open it, you'll see one or more items; the names will vary depending on the printer. You may have to try opening the following package to inspect the contents for the actual ICC profiles. Because this is a package, you need to use the contextual menu option (Control Click) to select "Show Package Contents," and you should see a list of all the ICC profiles inside that package. Copy or move them on your Mac to the folder where most of the other profiles reside: 
/Users/~/Library/ColorSync/Profiles
. Quit the Adobe product, restart it, and they should now show up. Profiles have TWO names (external, that which you see in the Finder) and an Internal Name which software will report. Check both.
