QTR-Quadtone RIP

Sounds like the MIS black ink is the problem - try replacing it with Epson 
OEM black ink and see what happens.  I believe that when you print without 
the RIP, all of the inks are used and combined to create black in most of 
the gray-to-black areas, and so smudging may well not occur.

Does the ink come off even after letting the print dry overnight?
