Ah, yes. Apologies for asking for "profiles." Now that you mention it I do recognize the 
different terminology of "profiles" (as in from Epson and other sources for printing in color 
on my 2200) and "curves" (for printing in monochrome via QTR).

I take it that there is not repository of curves beyond those in the install package, and that 
the only way to get others is to a) make them yourself (!) or b) find someone else who has 
made them, and that neither of these options are trivial matters?
