And, from what I understand, when third-party drivers *do* beat the 
manufacturer's RGB drivers, it's on less-than-ideal stock, and the improved 
quality isn't earth-shattering.

Canon's newest generation of printers (mine is an older generation) also 
support end users building paper profiles (which include droplet size and ink 
limiting at least, I think) with the same tools as Canon uses for their own 
paper profiles. (Note: these aren't color profiles.)
