The micro banding >I was getting, particularly in 3/4 tones, is a thing of the past. FWIW -- when I use(d) Epson OEM inks, the "Photo" paper setting was the only one I ever used. I first discovered (with the Xg variants) that the "Inkjet Backlit Film" setting was able to cure some strange tonal reversals in the very darkest tones. This applies to the Pinnacle Gold inks also. Perhaps I should run through the "spectrum" of other printer paper-type settings to see how they fare. rafe b. - Turn off HTML mail features. Keep quoted material short.
