Re: [Digital BW] Imageprint

2002-08-19 by Robert Morrison

The reason to use Imageprint is better image quality and profiles on demand.
Imageprint print quality is vastly superior to piezo plugin peformance.  The
profiles are much better (cleaner and smoother).  The final output has less
noise and as a result the image look sharper. It is similar to
piezopro...but Imageprint is making custom profiles for the new piezotone
inks as well as the MIS FS and FS-N inks...which are not identical to the
original Cone inks which piezopro was made for.  You will also get
2200/7600/9600 support which makes printing reasonable BW images with the
new epson printers possible. It also runs on a mac and pc...while piezo pro
runs on a PC.  In addition it is only $500 for a desktop version while it
runs $1500 to get into piezopro.  The large format version is $1500.

Hope that helps,

Robert
