I don\u2019t know if Paul is basing his comment on something he learned from me or not, I donR17;t remember if I told him this story or not, but I will chime in anyway\u2026
What I learned by accident: Epson’s driver uses a GREAT DEAL of color inks when you intend not to use them at all.
I make brown prints. Brown prints SHOULD be made of various dilutions of black, magenta and yellow. That217;s it. Cyan does NOT contribute to brown in any color system I have ever encountered.
One day, my black inks quit suddenly. ALL three of them, at once. With no black ink. Where the darkest parts of the image should have been, were massive amounts of cyan.
You cannot trust Epson\u2019s driver to do what should be done.
