I need to install a color profile. I Googled it and found a post that said you just right click on the downloaded profile and select "Install." I don't get the option per screen shot. The post said then PS would automatically find the profile and populate it in the Printer Profile dropdown after selecting Printer Manages Colors in the Color Handling option. Any help appreciated.
It seems that you have a downloaded a zip file, which probably contains several profiles for the P 7000 printer.
If you set Windows to show file extensions (recommended), you'll probably see the extension .zip.
Double-click the zip file to extract the profiles (or choose Extract all from the context menu, then install the profiles.
Instead of installing the profiles one by one, you can copy them all to C:\Windows\System32\spool\drivers\color

Thank you. I extracted the zip folder contents to the path you specified. However, per the screen shot below, the drop down for Printer Profile is still grayed out. I thought PS would automatically recognize the profile. Per the 2d screen shot, the profile is in a subfolder called "icc" in C:\Windows\System32\spool\drivers\color. Is that the problem?

Switch to Photoshop Manages Color. You will not see profiles using Printer Manages Color.
