Scott,

I went the same route as you and drew the same conclusions. Mine was: it's
not possible with the R800 to get neutral prints under all lights.

So my solution was the Epson C86 + the UT EZW inks from MIS. Worked out of
the box, works every time. The printer is cheaper than a set of R800 inks.
It sure won't cost you much to experiment ... compared to restocking R800
inks because of all the prints you reject.

Best,
Daniel Ridings
