... I don't think my Windows Epson 1280 driver sends raw data to the printer ...
after _lots_ of experimentation with epson windows drivers (v5.x for the 2100,925,R800), I found what I believe to be the correct settings for profile work (both printing test charts for calibration, and using the generated ICC profiles) ...
for drivers versions that offer the choice of 'no colour adjustment' or 'ICM' or 'other stupid epson stuff' choose 'no colour adjustment'
for drivers that offer 'ICM' or 'other stupid epson stuff' choose 'ICM' and tick 'no colour adjustment'
oh, and _never_ use the ICC profiles that come with the drivers (eg, EE_177__1.ICM)
for other settings, just pick ther paper type&size, print quality (I found 'best photo' to be the best choice as it was the most consistent between prints), and turn off 'edge smoothing' as it does a really f'n dodgy job.
and lastly, don't forget to allow the test charts to dry for at least several hours before shooting them with your spectro.
