Epson.

In Photoshop print window:
Color Handling:  Photoshop manages colors
Printer Profile:  QTR RGB Matte Paper
Rendering Intent:  Perceptual
Black Point Compensation (checked)

In Printer print window:

Printer:  QuadR300-GQ

In Quad Tone RIP window:

Mode:  Quad Tone RIP

Curve 1:  R200 neutral

When I went back to standard Epson and generic  grayscale profile in 
Photoshop the output was fine -- no color.
