Throwing in my two cents - the tints and other issues that required third-party drivers/RIPs or inksets have been eliminated in the newest generation of Epson printers (R2400 upward, but not the R1800 which I haven't used) and supposedly the HP printers as well. IOW, no need to even think about it until you're pretty good at digital workflow. -- MP wooderson@gmail.com
