An ICC profile is dependent not only on your printer model, but your inks.
Two different ink brands will exhibit different colour properties, so the ICCs for different inks are not interchangeable.
If your ink supplier cannot supply an ICC profile, then you will need to get a custom one made (about £25)
If your ink supplier says that you don't need one, (or something like "use Adobe 1998") then they are either lying or don't know what they're talking about, and you should consider finding a better supplier.

You need to download the Adobe Color Printer Utility.

This prints the files from Paul without any colour management, but you will still need to make sure colour management is turned off in your printer driver, and make a note of any other settings you use (for the paper type and print quality) as the settings you have for the test prints will be the ones you need to use for your actual printing with the new ICC.
