It is of course quite easy to do that in ColorDraw and Photopaint with the
imposition tools in the printer menu. Easier than in my Wasatch SoftRip.
Whether this is a lack in the Epson driver or Photoshop is open for
discussion.

A lot could be done at the Epson drivers though. A wider choice of virtual
paper settings (several ink limits, GCR settings etc) to make custom RGB
printer profiling easier is one thing. Or a menu that allows ink limit
setting and UCR, GCR etc.
