This is a known bug with the wide format Epson printers, and one of the 
utilities used to build PrintFIX PRO. Until there is a fix available to us to 
rebuild PFP, the workaround is to open any other   imaging application (typically 
Photoshop, Lightroom, etc), define printer settings there, save as a set, and 
select that set in the driver when printing from PrintFIX PRO. This works fine, 
and is only mildly inconvenient once you figure out how to deal with it...
