I've been hearing nothing but good things about it. Here's another
positive review:

Now, we just need to figure out how to get them to lower the price a
bit...

Subject: [Digital BW] Eye1revalation


Short story:
I borrowed a Gretag/Macbeth Eye1 from one of our vendors. Created a few
profiles on various papers (EAM, HWM, Epson Somerset Velvet.)
I printed a few grayscale images on the Epson 10000 (archival). They
were the most neutral prints I have seen from a 6 color printer. Close
to my quads on the 3000. A print of a 21 step grayscale confirmed this.
Separation in all steps, no color shift at any point. This was with the
Epson driver. Either the stars were aligned properly or the Eye1(with
Eye1 match software) created some of the best profiles I have seen.
Revalations are so few and far between that I just had to share this.
