Photoshop does not have printer profile for my HP 451. Any advice?

My HP M451 laserjet printer is not supported by Photoshop in printer profiles. I show no HP printers. Am I doing something wrong?

It's the printer manufacturer that provides profiles. If there are profiles available, they will be installed into the operating system when you install the printer software and driver.

 

Photoshop just reports what profiles are available from the operating system.

Pretty unlikely HP made a profile for that kind of printer (and the paper which is also key). 

You'll likely have to try Printer Manages Color and hope for the best.

    Thanks! I will give that a try. I have had an Epson printer with a profile for Single Weight MK black ink, and just tried it. The results were much better. I will see how the printer manages things.
