Just been having a couple of problems printing on my rather dated R200. Found a couple of links that may help anybody else with the same problem.

Prints were coming out too light and far too much magenta.

ICC profiles can be found on the support section of Epsons website here (http://esupport.epson-europe.com/SupportHome.aspx?lng=en-GB&data=0ccCGROWIYM58zV3pqc84W2LhUcmWnHiUk31CNK52sUU0 03D)

A rather good guide can be found here (http://www.permajet.com/pdf/how_to_install_and_use_icc_profiles.pdf)

Following the guide carefully worked for me.

Don't know why but Epson don't list an ICC for the Epson R220 which I have - tis a pain. I am tempted to try and make the R300s work with it though as they take the same ink etc.

I use the R220...

I downloaded the ICC profiles for the Australian R230 - same model as R220, infact the printer driver actually states "R220_R230" on their site. The profiles work perfectly. Here's the link...

From what I read elsewhere, R200, R220, R300 have the same print head so the profiles from one should work with the other. Nothing to loose in trying (other than loosing a few sheets of paper)

Yeah that is what I figured
