Will the ImagePrint RIP also work with the MIS Ultra Chrome compatible color
inks? Or if not, what would have to be done to make it work like the
original Epson inks?

As I am on a PC I would have to get - next to Win XP - a Linux installation
for printing. Would I have to get also a dedicated graphic applicaiton or
could I just switch to Linux to print out my photos I edited under PS/ Win
