Exactly, with the Epson OEM UC inks...the hilights are being made with 
the equivalent of a medium and dark gray ink from the quads...there is 
no way you will get dot free hilights...doesn't matter what driver you 
use.  But you are right once we get the 2200 empties (end of summer I 
hear)...using a light gray will solve the problem.  As far as bronzing 
goes with the Ultrachromes, using the lighter gray ink (maybe the photo 
cyan channel gray from the ultrachromes) with the yellow channel gray 
from the Ultratones  with the Ultrachrome photo black might be the 
ideal solution, when you have single channel control and are not 
dependent on the Epson driver.
