Hi Steve,

The original Ultrachrome inks are obviously '1st generation'. The 
Ultrachrome Hi-gloss inks in the R800 and R1800 would therefore seem to be 
'2nd generation', and the K3 Ultrachromes in the R2400 and upwards would 
seem to be '3rd generation'. ;)

The 1st gen ultrachrome inks suffer badly from bronzing and "gloss
differential" (B&W and colour).  Glop is short for gloss optimizer which
Epson uses on the R800/R1800 printers.  It is not needed with the 2nd gen K3
inks.
