Demand that Epson provide a better No Color Adjustment!
OK...so this is an ink limit thing. I guess this is a good reason to print
through a 3rd party RIP like BestColor where you have control over limiting
inks and soforth. I have to admit I much rather prefer building RGB/CMY
profiles than CMYK...at least for my purposes. Building CMYK profiles for
inkjets is a bit daunting when you are used to the ease of printing through
the Epson driver.

Hey Epson...are you listening? Is this slider going to trickle down to
