Hello Martin & all,
This sounds familiar. I remember having this issue using PM5-generated RGB profiles (ICC v2, not v4), printing from a Snow Leopard Mac. The issue did not show up with profiles made with Monaco PulseColor Elite.
As I recall, the issue ceased after running the Epson Common Updater, and avoiding Apple's Epson driver updates (I still uncheck the printer driver part of Software Update every time!).
Since I upgraded my ColorBurst RIP to drive my 7880, I have never looked back. It handles proofing & presentation/fine art printing like a champ; even soft proofing CMYK paper profiles seems more accurate than RGB, to my eye.
Good luck fixing this.
John
