Hi,

Power Retouche plugins seem to be highly rated.  I-click is a set of 
cheaper actions that seem to perform similar functions.  Anybody have 
experience with either?  

I'm looking for the best B/W output on a 2200 with full color OEM  
inks. I got good results with Power Retouche toner demo on EAM.

What is the latest info on nabing the 2100 European Gray balancer for 
US 2200? The most recent info I have is from 1/2003. I tried the 
russian source for english language conversion from french source - 
didn't get it to work. 

Thanks,

AZ

Why don't you use QTR or IJC/OPM? 

Power Retouche just tones in RGB and prints using all inks.

Don't waste your time as it never worked correctly from the beginning.

QTR or IJC/OPM is the way to go for the best B+W output!

John,

Are you saying a rip along with the paper profile will give good 
full-color OEM ink B/W prints?  Thanks for heads up on grey 
balancer.

A RIP lets you print toned B+W from cool to sepia using Epson's inks. No need for a special 
inkset.
