I don't think the ABW driver is capable of handling split-toning.  You
could create your toning in Photoshop, however, and just print via the
standard method (i.e., using the paper's profile and without using the
ABW mode).  The R2400 prints very nice mono using the Epson profiles.

Otherwise, I guess you would have to go with some type of RIP. I'm
pretty sure Imageprint will handle split-toning - not sure about QTR
or any others these days.  (I stopped experimenting when I received my
R2400!)
