Great point Gary. I wish I had thought of that; but I didn't. :-)

There is also some possible interaction with the printer dpi
settings, in that some settings (e.g. 1440 dpi) may not be
allowable with some media settings (e.g. plain paper.)  This
suggests some other possibilities, namely varying the dpi
settings.  I just finished making some prints on Heavyweight
Matte Paper.  I normally use the 1440 dpi setting for this paper,
but it seemed to result in too much ink in black areas, so I made
this batch of prints using the 720 dpi setting--seemed to reduce
the problem somewhat with minimal effect on the prints otherwise.
(Can't see much difference between 720 and 1440 dpi on matte
papers anyway.)
