Digital BW, The Print

Paul,

Apologies for dragging color into this, but how did you go about profiling MIS K4 inks on R260? I used to get very nice result on R280 using Gutenprint and customizing many details about it in config files (most importantly how it goes between C and LC) and then profiling it. With Epson driver results were too far too out of whack to successfully profile (too dark and cyan with some other weirdness). Unfortunately my modifications crash current version of Gutenprint in Snow Leopard and I don't have patience to debug it. Results were really fantastic for $100 printer except for lacking a slot for glop.
