Digital BW, The Print

I printed a 21-step test file with the icc that was created with this
system, and the ramp is relatively dark with very compressed 90% - 100%
steps.  It's not what I'd like to see as a final density distribution.

I was looking for an easy way to put the icc into the correct folder, but
have not found one yet.  If I open the icc with Notepad and save it,
Photoshop does not see it as an icc.

Is there a way to refresh the Photoshop icc list without closing and
re-opening the program?

Sorry for all the questions you guys have worked out long ago.
