What happens?

'Matte ink'? I'm not sure what you mean. The 3800 uses a pigment ink.

The R2880 uses 9 "Ultra Chrome" inks, ...

which inks are 'pigment inks'. See
http://www.epson.com/cgi-bin/Store/L...raChromeK3.jsp

... but only has slots for 8. So when
printing on matte paper or non gloss B&W you exchange the "Photo Black"
cartridge with the "Matte Black" cartridge. This is a royal PITA!

In my hand I am holding the three #96 black cartridges intended for use
in the R2880; "Light Black", "Light Light Black", "Photo Black", &
"Matte Black".
