I have recently purchased a Canon Pro-300 printer and would like to add in my usual paper types which are Ilford Galerie. I'd also like to remove most of the standard offerings from Canon.
It would seem that Canon has deliberately made this as difficult as possible, presumably in an effort to sell more of their paper. I have the correct .icc files from Ilford.
Any thoughts on this would be much appreciated. Much time has already been expended without good result. I'm using PaintShop Pro X8 64 bit albeit it's a 2016 version and have no objection to upgrading this, if that would help.

I believe, but I could be wrong, Corel's color management uses Windows color management. So all ICC profiles are stored wherever Windows stores them.

Re: Adding paper types - and removing them
I think icc files will install if you double click on them. After that you have to go select them in the Windows color management area. Go to Control Panel and select Color Management. There are several tabs and Windows is a bit obscure about what and where you have to do things. I think you can remove them there as well. A Google search should turn up the details if you don't want to trial and error it.
