GB and Image Print have nothing to do with each other. GB is a kludgy, poorly 
designed band-aid that hoses soft proofing and current ICC profiles. It's a toy. 
If anything, it's the kind of internal software garbage that keeps a good product 
like Image Print from being in the box. 

Image Print not only really does produce true, dead nuts gray balance with no 
metamerism, it's a production tool. It does packages, custom templates and 
produces better dither and Dmax. Putting GB and IP in the same sentence is 
like discussing a kite and the space shuttle as devices that take flight.
