The Legacy paper Media Type(s) in the driver is also there to be used with "Printer Managers Colour", for example when printing with AB&W...
And this is exactly the point I was trying to drive home. Re the above, it would seem logical enough, but “Says who?” That seems an assumption on our parts w/ ZERO credible information from Epson. Where in the manual are we told this? In the paper packaging? Via a customer info bulletin for registered owners?
And “yes” the Platine media type, came with, and was installed right along with the ICC profile, in the single driver package on my SC P5000 printer — with ZERO information from Epson on when, how, with what ICC profile (or not) the media for Platine should be used.
Mark, of course is correct, one can “assume” that the info in the ICC profile itself is correct (albeit confusing as heck considering there’s a Platine paper type) and use PLU as media type. But this group of people here tend to be better informed in general than the average Epson purchaser. How the hell is the average Joe or Jane supposed to figure this out on their own. It’s just poor....
