Digital BW, The Print

I read all the time about downloading profiles and curves for various papers
and printer combinations but for some reason I must not be using them
properly. Could someone give me a quick tutorial on where to place them in
PhotoShop CS and how to access them from the printer menu???

Any help would be much appreciated!

Subject: [Digital BW] Epson R2400 profiles
 
I have an R2400 on the way, with the intent of primarily using it for
B&W.  I have a question about how the ABW driver and the paper
profiles relate.
 
If I have a custom profile done for a specific paper, does that also
handle "optimizing" the ABW printing as well?  Does the printer
require a special target or anything, or is all of this handled in the
driver as long as the profile is the standard type?
 
I feel like I understand the basic concept of how profiles work and
have no trouble using them, but I'm just not sure if there is
something special involved in setting up the printer for a specific paper.
 
Thank you -
Eric
