The print dialogs are equally spartan: portrait/landscape, color/monochrome. (Note: the OS is linux, not windows.)

None have made any noticeable difference; none have affected the green cast. Others have mentioned a color profile for the printer. Epson does not offer any, and I do not know how it would be possible to create one and assign it to the printer. Because there is no difference in how the image is printed regardless of the program which generates the output, and that the printer itself seems to produce correct test patterns and alignment, my supposition is that there is some system value that is askew. Where to look for it, I am clueless. -- James Moe moe dot james at sohnen-moe dot com 520.743.3936 Think.
