if you plan to use third party inks - or unlisted [in the driver] paper
you'll need to do extensive tests to ascertain the optimum driver
settings [since Epson only optimize for their own stock of course].
I've done this tens of times and IMHO you'd do well to try my
Printer testing CD, I've had great feedback from users who appreciate
the way it makes the whole printer testing process straightforward and
pretty much a no-brainer. Sorry but I have to charge for it , it took
me a week to write the manual [yeah-maybe I'm too thorough]
If you need to know why have a look at the Ink and paper for inkjets
page on my site.
