Unfortunately, that's all I know.
John (johnp@...) did seem very receptive to criticism
about their pricing strategy though.

I thought the original question was about printing targets with 3rd party
color inks and passing it off to Colorbyte as if they were OEM inks just to
get them to profile it.  In that case, they might have a problem if their
policy is to not support 3rd party color inks and it looks like you're
duplicating a printer/ink/dpi combo that already exists.
