Actually I was thinking of a single printer that would do standard color
CcMmYK printing *and/or* Kkk printing *and/or* Kkk printing with toning by
CMY on demand.  Rather a tall order but I am a notorious optimist -- it was
only about three or four years ago when I first lamented that no one
produced four gray inks so we could use them with a RIP with a manual
separation -- and look where that has gone!  So don't be too surprised if
you see a true be-all end-all printer if enough folks keep (publicly)
wishing for one!
