I'm very relieved to hear this, and I think it seals the deal for me
on the R1800.  If I can get high quality B&W and color prints using
Paul's workflow on matte papers, and incredible color prints on glossy
papers using the Epson or MIS PK/GL cartridges without significant ink
loss, I'd be very happy.  I guess the only thing I give up is B&W on
glossy papers - but I rarely, if ever, use glossy papers for B&W.
