RE: 1160 prints "plain paper" - always (Win98)

["Barry Kelsall" <bktimes@jps.net>]

<x-charset iso-8859-1>Somehow I missed that part of the Epson Documentation. Couldn't find it in
the "Start Here", "Printer Basics", "Online Manual", or "Readme.doc".
Curious how Epson words their explanation of this "little quirk".

At any rate, the printer works fine now, with spectacular output from
Generations & CIS. It is much easier to profile using Profiler RGB than my
1200. Maybe I can convert the 1200 to Dan Culbertson's tritone B&W
someday...
