Digital BW, The Print

Hi Andrew B,

The $500 yearly service contract is not a rumor, it's on the Colorbyte website. The website does NOT mention getting profiles made as part of the contract - as near as I can tell, that is a rumor (hopefully a true one).

In any case, it has been reported (in this group, I think) that Colorbyte cannot profile the matte black ink the 2200 at this time.

You can get a free demo version of ImagePrint for the 2200 and assess the user interface (and the output) for yourself.

  That is precicely why some people are arguing for purchasing ImagePrint,
  since they claim to do free profiles for you, if they don't already have
  one in place. The software is $500, but the rumor is that this is a
  yearly fee, which puts the software out of my range. If that was a one
  time fee, I would consider it, as some people are having good success
  with it, both for b&w and color prints. But I also hear the interface is
  pretty clunky. I am in the software consulting business, and I have a
  very low threshold for cruddy interfaces and workarounds.
