I notice that while the InkJetArt removal recommendation works very well,
MIS recommends leaving them in, but putting a washer under the 2 screws that
hold the metal plate with the pizza wheels.  This is said to reduce the
pressure enough to avoid the marks.  It also, of course, would have the
advantage of keeping the wheels there, and those wheels are there for a
reason.  Among other things, they keep the paper down so that it does not
hit the paper.  Getting the washer under the screw on the right is
apparently a bit of a trick.  I haven't tried this, but I can see where it
might be at least theoretically a superior approach.

For the UT inkset, try Dirk's approach and curves.

I have curves for the UT2 inkset that work for all the Epson Premium papers
except the Semimatte, which appears to be quite different than the others.
I'll send them off list.
