      When i then click on page setup, i go to the "epson stylus pro 7800 properties.




I don't have your same printer, but it sounds like you are describing the printer driver, not "Page Setup".

      On the "Main" tab, I have selected the following:




You must try to use the exact same terminology that you encountering. There is no "main" tab that I know of in the printer driver.

      for "select setting" i have "current settings";




I've no idea where that would be.

      for Media type "photo quality ink jet paper";




Fine, as long as that is exactly the kind of paper you are using.

      for "color" i have "color";




You mean for "Ink" you select "Color"? Again, you must be precise if you want to receive help.

      for "print quality" i have "quality"; for "mode" i have clicked "automatic"




That is incorrect. You should choose "No Color Adjustment", both when printing the testchart which you measure to create the profile and when you print after you have created the profile and are using it in Photoshop's "Print" dialog box.

If you don't do that, your results will be invalid.

      and under that is "epson Standard (sRGB)... hence there is no "advanced
      button" to select.




Yes, there should be, in the printer driver's "Printer Settings" tab.
