>I, too, have had difficulty using my Expression 636 Pro with 10.3.2: 
>Epson finally confessed that there were only two possible alternatives 
>available to enable usage - Lasersoft's Silverfast and another source. 
>The Silverfast has drivers specifically tailored to each Epson model, 
>and also offers IT8 calibration software and targets... at an addition 
>cost! I was hoping for an electronic solution to resolve the calibration 
>between my 636, 22" Cinema display, and Epson printer, but it would 
>appear that the sole solution is to acquire this software and manually 
>calibrate...unless some else on the list is aware of another alternative?

>Thanks - in advance - for all your help and suggestions!
