Tim,

I gather you are doing duotones with the native Epson ink set and 
driver? Would you be willing to post your workflow and duotone curves?

I would also recommend that you search out John Paul 
Caponigro's article in either View Camera and Camera Arts (sister 
magazines) for his detailed duotone procedure.

If you call they might be able to come up with a back issue. I 
believe it was last fall. If not let me know and I will seriously dig 
through my back issues.

You might also take a look at Michael H. Reichmann's Luminous 
Landscape site and his post on duotones:
