About 2-3 months ago I lost the ability to print black in Lr or PS on my Epson Pro 3800.  I am using a MAC.  Saturated blacks now print as a greenish-gray color.  What has changed?

What specifically are your Epson driver settings? Do you have LR set for Printer or Application Manages Color?

I did, and I still got a greenish-gray cast when the Histogram touches the black edge.  If I lighten the blacks to show a definite gap between the left side of the histogram and the edge I get rid of the greenish-gray cast but the shadows are no longer a rich black.
