He suggests that the both the Assign Profile in Photoshop and the Printer Profile should be identical. He used Adobe RGB in his workaround, but believes that it should work equally well if both are set to Pro Photo RGB, and I assume setting both to sRGB would be included as well. This is similar to Roy Harrington's earlier suggestion about using the sRGB workaround, but suggests that other color spaces may work as well. I haven't had a chance to play with that idea yet, but would welcome any comments if you or other member of the newsgroup have experience with this in CS5/Mac OS and the Epson 7900/9900 printers and.

There are conflicting reports on which colour space does the trick.

But why not use Adobe's new utility for the target printing:

BTW, there is still a request/question by Andrew Darlow on QTR support 
for the 11880, no hint what he could try to print only the black channel 
(one of the two) ?
