Digital BW, The Print

Peter,

Thanks for that bit of info. Tyler uses and recommends the PressReady RIP
and I was very interested but since it didn't support the 1280 I passed it
up. I don't normally use the 2880 dpi setting so that would not be a
problem.

If the price is low enough, I will probably have to give the ImagePrint4 RIP
a try, even with the dongle. (Hopefully the hassle of supporting them will
push them towards a more user friendly solution.) I have to say that their
dither pattern is not the most pleasing. A fine window screen very similar
to the Piezo driver. I really do prefer the Epson dither which is less
mechanical looking.

One of your prints would be most welcome as always!

Martin

Martin,
I'm using a 1270 with vacuum-filled virgin carts. PressReady will work with
the 1280 but doesn't allow access to the 2880 dpi setting. It's also very
slow to spoolSthough the dither pattern--indiscernible with a 4x loupe--is
excellent (seems the same as Epson's). I'll mail you a print when I get one
"done" if you'd like, just for a lookseeS
Bought Pressready about 6 months ago for $50 on Ebay and I've been meaning
to try it in this manner. I've also got a demo of Imageprint coming, dongle
or no.
Peter
