Re: color seperation software
PhotoShop, Illustrator or CorelDraw are all good programs to render your artwork in. Seperating your colors with an Epson printer will call for a program called "RIP". It will cost you a pretty penny, upwards up to $1000, so be ready for that.
If you can get hold of a post-script-laser printer, you will only need the software to do your artwork. The laser printer will do the seps for you in the proper half-tones or solids to do whatever your printing.
On top of the "RIP" software, you will need the special inks for the printer and the films, so it might be a good idea to check out several supply companies. Compare the different prices of Ink-Jet printing vs. Post-Script Laser printing.
Good luck............
