question

Does anyone know what Canon printer settings (PROGRAF PRO-1000) to use for this paper? Because they're competitors, there's no ICC profile, but there should be a standard setting that should work.
Asked by: Dean G.
Sorry, I print with Epson printers and Epson has a profile for this paper.
