Is the camera capable of addressing cards of that size?
Yes the K200D support SDHC without any problems so it isn't that.Is the camera capable of addressing cards of that size?
I'm out of suggestions...

Can't understand what went wrong.
What if you format the cards again in camera and try again?I did format the cards in camera.
Can't understand what went wrong.
I know that camera's can be very picky with that...

PF comes from the optics of the lens or maybe the microlenses on the sensor so nothing that can be done with firmware...The K-5 has a problem with purple fringing and this can be seen in the first shot.

I would just stay with epson if i was you.
IF you print a lot you could look at a continues feed system, those should be cheaper to run but you might want to invest in something to calibrate the colours of the printer if you do that. Colormunki is probably the cheapest solution.

I normally shoot in RAW and I've change the JPG settings to reflect the RAW image better so if I want to shoot JPG i would need to change those settings to get a better photo so i've saved those settings under the USER mode.

An option you might want to consider in the short term, and one that doesn't require the purchase of a monitor calibration device, is to use the default settings on the Eizo with your current printer and paper(s) and get an ICC colour profile, which corrects for differences between the on screen and printed image. A number of companies, for a small fee, offer profiling services of this type. It involves you printing a colour test chart, which they provide, on your paper of choice. This is then returned to them for comparison with the reference chart to produce produce the ICC profile for your monitor/printer/paper combination. Alternatively, I note that Fotospeed link provide a free colour profiling service for all of the high quality photo papers they stock, some of which are very reasonably priced (e.g. Those from their own range). I am about to try this service myself.

It's even so that if you would have Eizo Flexscan S2243W that you can end up with two slightly different calibration values so it's a bit beyond me how they can meaure your monitor with just a print...

Don't confuse 10-bit LUT and 10-bit/channel colour depth, they are two different things; for what it's worth, you will need a Fire Pro card (or similar) for the latter, because even though the Radeon chips have the capability, it has been killed in firmware.

Also format the cards in the camera, that might also sometimes help.

The problem is you said in another posts you do prints for clients as well... when the colours are off what will you say then... I calibrated the screen with my own eyes so your printers are off? Actually I love it
my working enviroment is pretty similar so that could work for me too...
If sRGB is enough this one is also an option and it has an amazing static contrast off 2975:1 on calibrated screen, most other panels don't go over the 1000:1 and just look at the black point .

TAv ?
Difference to AV (Aperture priority) on other cameras?
Av = Aperture priority
Tv = Shutter priority
TAv = Shutter Aperture priority - you set the Shutter & Aperture and the camera pick the right ISO
Sv = Sensitivity priority is also pentax only i believe - you pick the ISO and the camera does the rest.
