I was about to open a new topic on exactly this issue.  I have
recently started using Piezography Neutral K7 inks with my Epson 2200
and found this group in short order.

I am not sure if eddiegnz1 is talking about the same thing, but here
is a sample of some recently used terms that are not clear to me yet:

"IJC", "ABW mode", "4K" (4 black inks??), "OPM", "4000 NK", "GQuad",
"HPR", "EEM" (Epson Enhanced Matte??), "OBA", "split-tone";
