In my experience It's virtually impossible to get b&w without a color 
cast from a color printer using the Epson driver, even with a custom 
paper profile. On the other hand, ImagePrint from ColorByte produces 
spot-on neutral b&w prints, and also has a TintPicker which allows 
subtle "toning" of prints. Although ImagePrint can be difficult to set 
up it's easy to use thereafter.
