It seems that  the textured fine art paper setting that works so well 
disables autocut.  Back to the drawing board.

This is the kind of decision making in the Epson driver that can be
very frustrating.

Textured fine art is probably too thick for the built-in cutter (the
driver decides for you); so it disables auto-cut. Of course, this doesn't
matter if you're not actually putting textured fine art paper THROUGH the
printer with that setting...

Doesn't mean you can't use the cutter; you just can't use the auto-cut
setting in the driver. (Well, at least with the 4800, I can manually
use the cutter through the front panel UI, as long as I know that I don't
actually have paper in the printer that will damage the blade).

Thanks David.  I will have to explore the cutter issue a little deeper.
