QTR-Quadtone RIP

From my experience with the R2880 printer it sounds as though you have the PK (photo black) cartridge installed.  The printer section in Photoshop only allows certain papers, depending on the black cartridge used.  If PK, only glossy paper, if MK only Matt paper.  

Your print dialogue result suggests you actually have photo black installed.

This explains why I wish I had the Epson R3000 which has the extra cartridge so both are always available.  When I need to change the black cartridge I have to think, "Do I want to print on Glossy or Matt for the next period?"

Hope this helps.

Jim Thyer.

  I am trying to print to Epson R2880 Printer with matte black ink installed. The Apple print dialog only lists 4 paper types as choices for high resolution images. Printer requires the use of a matte type paper before allowing printing to continue. I have matte paper installed, but print dialog does not allow me to pick it. Only choices are glossy, semi glossy, photo glossy, and luster.
  Printer will not accept any of these choices.
