I got the cheapest Eye-One to calibrate my monitor and then followed

Seems like a straightforward approach: get the screen right and then
avoid as much intervention as possible. I don't do a great deal of
printing so use Epson ink and paper to go with the printer. It's
accurate and very easy.
On the epson r1800 the individual tanks seem small but there's quite a
few of them so the last longer than I thought they would.
