Norm-

you don't say whether you are mac or pc...there are several free 
solutions for mac. Image Print seems to yield the best results for pc 
(for both color and BW).

I agree with post that says gray balancer is worthless...less than 
worthless, you waste a lot of time and paper and ink trying to make 
it work.

I think the Picto Rico profiles for their papers work quite well, you 
might give that a try. And the MOAB papers also have free profiles (I 
haven't tried them, but the paper samples look quite nice).

You will get your best results with Matte Black ink on a good paper 
like Photo Rag or Espson Velvet (though there is a lot of controversy 
about the quality of EEM, it looks great for testing).

cheers,

Tom O'Connell
