Printer Profiles 2

It turned out that the printer profile I chose was wrong, the first few step were right but, I loaded the Profile into the wrong place, and what I thought was right on the instructions was actually a wrong profile with a similar name.
It caused the print to be really dark and the colours were off too, we ran a nozzle check, which concluded that the nozzles were fine, which made us realise what was wrong.
We had to re download the file and load it into a different place. That place was Users > Library > ColorSync > Profiles. We checked in the ColorSync Utility that ProPhoto RGB fits inside the colour space for The Fotospeed High White Smooth FineArt Inkjet Paper. This caused the profile to be available within the drop down menu where you choose the profile, in colour management. The difference was one was 4K and the correct one was called the same without the 4K.
