Douglas and I have been talking about this, because I have no BO mode 
in my driver either.  I am using Windows and the MK cartridge and we 
are suspecting that one of these is the issue (Douglas is using the

updated my driver to the most recent, posted on the Epson site on 
8/22 which looks functionally the same as the earlier one (no BO).
