Digital BW, The Print

Yes definitely two problems.  Normally I print color with the Epson driver,
then in PS, as you said, I choose QRT if I want to print b&w.  The two
problems are:  QTR won¹t print, and the Epson gets corrupted.  Indeed, I
can¹t merely reinstall the Epson I have to trash the printer folder in
Library, and download a whole new driver, which creates the folder all over
again.  In fact this is exactly where I am now.  So, do I need gimp?  Could
that have been a problem?  I though only Panther didn¹t need gimp?
