While working on my Epson 3880, I decided to update drivers and paper profiles over at the Epson site. The process is very straight forward, the only issue is that Epson has a limited number of profiles available and these all tie into the new paper types that they are selling. I have an inventory of some stock that I could not find any profiles for.
Off to Google land I went and found a site that you might be interested in. The site author, Eric Chan has been developing and profiling various paper stock for the 3880 and the older 3800. The 3880 profiles are based on the UltraChrome K3 with Vivid Magenta ink set, with the emphasis on the Advance Black&White (ABW) mode of the Epson 3880.
I ran a number of prints for Velvet Fine Art and was impressed with the results. You may want to give the site a peek and see if you have any of the paper that Eric has profiled for the 3880 or the 3800.
