Digital BW, The Print

Epson now admits they have a magenta shift problem with this printer. You 
will see much discussion in these forums about how people have gone about 
to mitigate it.  If you are working in color, you can try to download the George 
Lepp profiles. Some have had luck with Epson's grey balancer software. 
Epson tells me it doesn't work with the 2200 because of the firmware in the 
printer. They do market a $200 postscript rip that is supposed to help. Too bad 
they didn't tell us this when they marketed the printer to pros in the first place 
as being capable of high level black and white!
