Printing with Canon PIXMA Pro-100 and Canon Paper
Unfortunately, the Canon tools are set up as plugins to Lightroom and Photoshop.
I opened the containers and copied the ICC files I need to /Library/Colorsync and Capture One can see them like any other profile. And I'm a happy guy.

Hi rmcrob! Thanks for posting this. I just got a Pixma 8720 and had a devil of a time figuring this out, but I wonder: does this also provide you with paper profiles, or just the printer? Thanks!

Unlike ICC profiles for non-Canon papers installed in /Library/Colorsync/Profiles, Canon ICC profiles reside in the .canonicc container, as noted by rmcrob, above. While you can copy them to /Library/Colorsync/Profiles, you should not need to do so. The .canonicc package is part of the Pro 100 driver and the ICC profiles in it show up as a choice in the print dialog dropdown when printing from Capture One, assuming the driver is correctly installed.
Unfortunately, when changing MacOS versions, or the connection to the printer, the driver can loose track of the ICC profiles and they may not show up as a choice in the Capture One print dialog. After many months of not printing, I found this out the hard way when I mistook Red River version of Pro Luster for the Canon Pro Luster and got weird colors. It took me a while to realize I was selecting the wrong profile because the Canon profiles were missing from the dialog dropdown. Deleting the printer and reinstalling it made the Canon profiles reappear in the print dialog. Canon advises installing the Canon IJ Network driver rather then the Bounjour driver.

- “Canon advises installing the Canon IJ Network driver rather than the Bounjour driver.” Canon does not make this easy to differentiate between this and the Bonjour version on macOS. When I did install this one and made sure the other was removed, both showed as Bonjour in some Canon installer I was fiddling with… This must might be Apple or Canon not differentiating much but, boy, what mess. I uninstalled what ever it was and, again, for sure put in the IJ Network only. Hopefully this is not some Apple going to install Bonjour no matter what feature…
- So, if you do not have an Adobe product for the older Canon plug in (PPL does not work on Pro-100 in stand alone mode — the best way to print to it) what is the best way to print from COP 20 to the Pro-100?
Right now, it seems the Canon IJ Network driver is the one and only way…
I am on Mac mini M1 with Monterey. I can also print from Nikon NX Studio. But it is made more for Epson plugins…0
