Create-icc and Epson driver?

Create-icc and Epson driver?

2008-11-17 by slcphoto73

I am using an Epson 3800. I have created a .icc file in the approved
way. When I print from Photoshop with Photoshop Manages Colors and the
Epson ABW print driver (same settings of course) the prints are darker
and the blacks are blocked up, compared to Printer Manages Colors.

Is it that Create-icc profiles can only be used with QTR printing, or
am I doing something wrong?

Details
  Print QTR-51-random / pshop does not color manage, printer manages
colors, ABW normal (I repeated test with ABW dark, same problem) all
other ABW settings neutral.
  MeasureTool/eye-one -> .txt file
  Create-icc.
  Image in grayscale Gray Gamma 2.2, 16-bit, flattened
  Proof with new .icc file, perceptual. Very slight changes in darks
visible.
  Print with Pshop Manages Colors, selecting new .icc file,
perceptual, and same Epson ABW settings. Result is dark with blacks
blocked.

I appreciate in advance any help,
