Digital BW, The Print

My guess is that it is incompatible because that it only comes in 
17x22 sheets or rolls 16" and wider. If you were to put in the Epson 
profile for the semi matte(if you could even get it), the print 
driver for the 2400 would say that it is incompatible because it 
knows that profile is for the X800 printers. That is why I suggested 
using the "premium luster" profile. Or, if you can, make your own 
profile. What I ordered from Hawk Mountain looks IDENTICAL to the 
epson semi matte,(at a GREAT price) so much so that I ordered 3 
different sizes. One of which is 13x19. You can't do that with the 
epson!
Although I haven't had a chance to print anything yet(the order just 
came today), but when I do, I'm going to do a color and a B&W using 
the epson profiles to see how close they come to the previous ones 
done on EPSM. After that I intend to make my own profiles and utilize 
QTR for B&W. And I did make the B&W(on EPSM) with epsons' ABW
