Digital BW, The Print

I'm on PC.
BTW, my i1match profiles do not have bkpt either, but you can select
simulate-black-ink in PS, and it does lighten the black.  Looking at i1match
profiles in ColorThink you can see the obvious non-zero black point value in
the 3D gamut view; that must be where PS gets the black point value, at
least for i1match profiles.

Best regards,
John Moody

Interesting.  I am looking at the profiles installed by the Mac driver on
the UK site.  In actual fact it doesn't install the profiles in a
conventional fashion, ie place them in /Library/Colorsync/Profiles.  The
only way to view them is to go to /Library/Printers/Epson/SPro4800.plugin
and Show Package Contents - they are then under Resources. Are you on a Mac
or PC?  If Mac is yours like this? Epson works in mysterious ways I
guess...But then the bkpt tag can't be the trigger because none of my i1
profiles have the bkpt tag.
