Hi Jeff,

The Presets in Jaguar seem to have a weird combination of last value
and the preset value.  One thing that I found that help often was to
have a different printer selected beforehand, then select which Preset 
and then select the desired Printer.  The changing of the Printer 
seemed to reset the "last value" settings.   I'm now using Panther and
the Presets are much more consistent with this version.

The ink usage is kept track of in the printer so, yes, you should be
able to use the Utility regardless of which driver you use.
