Rich,

I'm using the 1160 with the original piezo inks.  I have a "fog" picture
which I found to have quite good transitions.  It was unprintable using
color inks with the epson driver, the profiles could not handle the
gradients smoothly enough.

I might guess that the MIS inks are not an exact enough match to the piezo
inks and profiles and that creates the transition problems.  I am very
impressed with the good print though.
