What are the available Color Modes for the Epson 3800?
In the printer driver settings you can choose from the following three Color Modes: Color, Advanced B&W Photo, and Black. Color is for printing standard color photographs (though you can print black and white images this way, too). Advanced B&W Photo (ABW) is a special driver mode optimized for printing black and white images. See here for a discussion of the pros and cons of the ABW mode. Black is for printing text only (e.g., if you’re printing a text file). Don’t use it for printing your images.
