1400-MIS is where a few UT14 profiles will be.  I assume it'll work with the 1410.  Note that I set up Photoshop curves for Epson driver printing. These might be best used in an ICC.  The QTR forum -- http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/QuadtoneRIP/messages -- has people who may share many more QTR profiles.

I don't think anything needs to be done with the original set of color carts except keeping them in case the printer needs warranty repair.  Stick them back in then.

Good luck with the system.
