Is your monitor calibrated?
Initially, at least, stick with paper from Epson. Use the build in profiles.
Uncheck "printer color control".

Basically I think I like my new Epson RX700, but I'm trying to figure out
how to most out of this gigantic beast.
The prints are pretty detailed. But I'm having problems getting the skin
tones and the highlights right. The colours are very unpredictable in that
area. I know printing have been discussed a lot here, but I haven't been
paying much attention to those threads (I'm a bit "need to know" oriented
in
my reading).
So, now I wonder, does anybody have any good tips? I'm not asking for you
to
hold my hand while I'm experimenting, but can any experienced printers
point
me in the right direction? (Online resources, other hard facts, or message
boards were I might get help).
Just for the record, I know nothing about colour profiles and so on.

Subject: My enablement has arrived :-D
My Epson RX700 multifunctional printer has arrived. I haven't done any
serious tests. But so far, everything seems to be in order. It's easy to
do
the basic setup. My only complaint is that it is huge (read gigantic) at
my
desk. Besides this, I am one happy guy.
Most likely I will fill you in with details later.
