Digital BW, The Print

Has anyone tried this combo yet?  I'm trying to squeeze a little life 
out of my 1270 printer.  I've been running the VM inkset using the 
Epson driver with fairly good success on small (ie, 5x5" prints).  
However, the dot pattern is visible under a loupe, so I thought I'd 
try the ImagePrint RIP. Any guidance would be helpful.

Thanks,

Andrew
