Digital BW, The Print

hi Robert,

your experience thus far does not match mine. A Demo of ImagePrint showed a
definite grain structure (based on a square pattern it seemed to me) where a
Piezo print of the same image, same paper, same alignment, was smooth and
'structureless' under magnification. It seemed to me that the Piezo profiles
were slightly smoother (there was some 'blotchiness' to the image from
ImagePrint as the tone moved towards Black.

Having said all that, I did not make any major effort to realign the printer
to see if I could get the IP software to be dotless. Just my brief
experience thus far.

Best regards,
Nij
