I followed your suggestion, and the prints are coming out great.  Thanks Dan

That is a good sign.  In my PDF on Eboni-6, I recommend people  start with the 
Epson driver.  See http://www.paulroark.com/BW-Info/Eboni-6.pdf

In fact, I'm not sure there are any Eboni-6 QTR profiles in my profiles Zip 
file.  I assumed, perhaps incorrectly, that those  who use the rip knew how to 
make their own profiles.

The Epson driver with ICCs made with QTR's "Create ICC-RGB" makes an excellent 
workflow for Eboni-6 in the 1400.

I suspect  you're using a profile that was not intended for Eboni-6.  Be sure 
the profile name says "Eb6" or "Eboni-6" in the name of the profile.

Again, start with the Epson driver workflows, including the ICCs that have Eb6 
in the names.

Hope  this helps.
