Yes Carl, your sepia profile is definitely sepia. and lovely... I'm 
afraid with the portraits I've been trying to print lately I'm getting 
an objectionable pattern or dither, not quite that of the Black , they 
worked so very well with the soft abstract prints for me though.

I've gotten a very beautiful chocolate on rag paper with the epson 
driver, like chocolate velvet... but there is too much magenta rearing 
it's head in some transition areas, and has a twist to green in the 
mid's when the sun shines. I'm hoping to try a custom profile, to use 
with the epson driver.
