Digital BW, The Print

I wonder if they even considered making the software available for
purchase?

My own sources point to two basic reasons EPSON USA chose not to include

the software:

1)    Its complexity would have created numerous tech support calls from

mainstream consumers..

2)    Given how sensitive the American niche market for fine prints is 
to metamerism, AND how ell developed that market is becoming.  It was 
felt that to include software that ostensibly PROVED metamerism (in the 
sense of needing to tweak for varied lighting conditions)  was seen as a

large minus..
