Digital BW, The Print

According to Colorbyte the B&W "profiles" are not "real" profiles.  They would not be recognized by any other application as an ICC profile.  Therefore, I theink applying ICC to them is a misnomer.
 
Their color profiles are recognized by any application that know about ICC profiles, but not the b&w.

Of course it is.  They profile the response of the printer driven by the IP

Epson driver.  You can't profile the Imageprint driver and expect it to
represent the performance of the Epson driver.
