And once set and saved it would be real nice if they came back, all of them not just random parts, when said user picked them from the drop down menu!!!!

 Epson chose to put MK/PK ink selection and paper feed issues in
 Page Setup and the "easiest" way for MK/PK was a different driver
 name.  The advantage was that only papers appropriate for the ink
 installed would be shown in the Print dialogs.  For the Pro
 printers ink change is rare so it was probably OK but for the
 2200/R2400 ink changes are easy so the driver change is a hassle.
 BTW, its easy to just create 2 printer names one for MK and one for
 PK and just leave them there.

That makes more sense. Gutenprint allows you to use either ink set
with any kind of paper -- if you want to print matte black ink to
glossy paper, it won't stand in your way. I guess that's *my*
philosophy yielding yet another outcome; I'm not a big fan of software
not letting you do something "for your own good".
