I have 15 custom profiles saved in the standard Canon printer preference
settings routine. I'm moving from Windows XP to a new system with Windows
Vista and wish to copy and transfer those custom profiles to Vista without
the need of looking at every setting times 15 profiles and hand copying the
settings.. Can somebody point me to where these custom profiles are located
on my current hard drive? What are the custom profile file names

Profiles are normally stored in the Windows/spool/drivers/color sub-folder.
If you made custom profiles then they are named whatever you named them when
you saved them.
I have found custom profiles in Windows/system32/drivers/color but none of
these as far as I can tell are the custom Canon profiles that I generated.
The profiles that I'm talking about are generated inside the the standard
Canon settings application and are saved in that routine. Maybe the
generated and saved custom profiles are part of the printer driver file or
something.

Canon replied, they stated that the saved custom profiles are embedded in
the printer driver and no way to transfer them to Vista which uses a
different driver than XP.
