A printer profile is nothing more than a text file with information on how colours should be interpreted by an output device such as a printer, however to get accurate colours a ICC printer profile is essential.
Windows XP Shortcut to Install
On Windows XP users can just drag the ICC profile onto their desktop and just right click and select Install Profile, Windows will then install the profile into the correct location
