QTR-Quadtone RIP

Warren, ABW = Advanced Black and White.  This is true compared to previous
Epson drivers and printers. The latest series of printers now allow you to,
WITHOUT the additional purchase of a RIP, or additional software make some
very nice B&W prints. Some will argue about that amounts of certain ink
(color) that it allows in a print. It big advantage is to give a beginner,
no tech type person, a way to make both color and B&W images that are of
high quality. There are programs, like QTR, that give you more control over
that process. 

 

In the world of Epson printers and drivers it is a vast improvement.
However, in the world of digital B&W it is a long time coming and still has
failings that some find love to complain about.

"So, back on topic -- why do other printers find using
ICC profiles,
dedicated inksets, and/or QTR valuable? Are their
prints that much better
then what the Epson driver can do in ABW to make all
the extra work (hassle,
in my opinion) worth it?"

Leading me to ask:

What is ABW?
