I second that.  I tried sample images on my wife and some
of her musician friends and most people found it quite
noticable and significantly coarser than the stock Epson
driver.  Still, I prefer the IP because the coarsness goes
away if you stand more than a foot or so from the print,
whereas the metamerism of the Epson driver print is visible
from across the room!

I dunno - Mitch - do you see the dots in Black Only 
printing?   Some people just don't have very good
closeup vision, or if they do, it doesn't bother them.
