I have to agree with Godders. I used ColorSynch for quite a while, but after reading Godfrey's post about color managed workflow, I switched to that method. It does provide better results, particularly when printing BW. The Epson paper profiles are very refined. I had some problems getting started, but if I had read the relevant parts of the Epson manual, it would have been much easier. Paul On Mar 22, 2007, at 10:30 AM, Godfrey DiGiorgi wrote:
