Todd,

You ARE using quad-tone inks, and therefore using all four inks and some
kind of dither pattern, right?

An interesting note, I believe Cone claims 2160DPI for their driver...and I
have not been able to verify this at all...and every time I enquire, I get
no response...  I don't find a way of doing 2160 in the Epson command set,
which is why I an questioning whether they really can get 2160 out of it.
I'm not saying they can't, I just can't verify that it is even possible.

Regards,

Austin
