Digital BW, The Print

mitch,  I'll try that . I am new at this but when you say use the 
arches profile, just how and where do I do that?
Right now I am seeing all the epson papers appear on the various 
windows so it is straight forward if I switch to hannemuhle rag or 
arches infinity smooth  where do I plug in the profiles?
