To use a profile in any non-color managed application, you should rely on Windows color management. The problem is that Windows CM does only work if you set an specific option on drivers' settings. There's usually an option on those Canon/Epson driver settings called ICM. To be your profile valid for non-managed applications, you should print targets using ICM on, and no profile (custom nor Canon/Epson-made) selected on Windows color management panel for the printer. There, you should select "use my own settings", "manual" and remove any profile that remains on the list. After you print the targets and build the profile(s), you can finally fill that Windows CM panel with the recently made one(s). Everytime you print using a non-CM application, you should be sure the proper profile is selected as default one. You can also select the rendering intent using the same Windows CM panel.

Alternatively, maybe it would be possible to replace the default profiles with your own generated profiles, with the same filename and header of those original ones, so they would be selected and applied automatically. I had never tried this, though.

Hello everybody!
Im new in this Group. My name is Chris and im from Germany.
I start with my question.
I created a Profile for a Epson P50.
I want to use this Profile in every Application, like Word, Main Picture Program, etc.
But i only get the real Profile if I use the Spyder3Print Software. (I think PS with a Profile choose could make it too).
If I Print a pic from Windows Picture Wizard, it looks like Garbage.

I tried nearly everything, but it wont work.

Any Ideas?
