Forgot to say that these grey patches were printed using the PhotoRPM 
setting of the R800 printer (5760x1440).

Hogarth,

That is just what the Epson drivers do; they use all three drop sizes
depending on the amount of ink to be laid down and the color mixing
required.

For example, here is an extract from a decoded Epson R800 print file,
showing the numbers of the drops of different sizes (d1-d3) of the four
different inks ( r=B (blue), r=p (photoK), r=C (Cyan), r=Y (yellow)) used to
print this grey band (rgb=25/25/25):-
