John,

What I do not understand is that Epson didn't invite you 5  years ago to 
lead the design team, that would have saved us a lot of  headaches :-)

I applaud your point here. Having worked on design teams for over 25 years,  
I can tell you that product design and production is run by bean counters and  
sales/marketing types much more so than engineers. Product lines must EVOLVE  
because there is so much to learn from one generation to the next.
 
Historially, there are many companies whose products got worse over time  
rather then better (cheaper materials, etc.). The PRINT QUALITY improves with  
each generation of printer, so we should be thankful for the opportunity to buy  
such quality for a measly 5 Grand (try an RA-4 setup that can make 44" prints 
 and see what THAT costs).

Anybody using ILC/OPM on an Epson 4000 with MIS or
PiezoTone inks? Any comments positive or negative?

I'm using IJC/OPM on a 4000, but only with UC inks.  Joe Berndt is in 
the process of increasing the ink limits for the 4000 so you can get 
more ink on the page.  The 4000 wasn't spitting out enough ink before, 
but it is just fine with the new beta.  I recommend you contact him 
before going wild building profiles.  This will apply whether using UC 
or MIS inksets.

Bill, I am currently using IJC/OPM for Windows v1.08.  This version 
provides plenty of ink for the 4000.  I believe Joe will be formally 
releasing the latest version with some neat enhancements in the next 
week.  

If you are on version 1.2, I am guessing you are on a Mac.  I am 
pretty sure Joe has increased the ink limits for the 4000 on the Mac 
version too.  Best to check with Bowhaus.
