I think the 4800 prints look good.  I can't see the dots in normal viewing.
Some, however, have noted metamerism in the Epson prints.  With more color
inks, that is what I'd expect.

That is why I asked for sample test strips.  I'll be running a fade test
next month comparing the 4800 Epson UC inks with UT7 inks.

It would be interesting to put cleaning fluid in the 2400 "gray" ink spots
and then print a "B&W" 21-step test strip to see just what the distribution
of color inks is in that mode.
