In my view the output is smoother, NOT rougher, than the Epson driver, 
with the gradation as good as Piezography which is what I had been 
using previously. When I was originally considering buying IP, I sent 
an e-mail to Jon Cone and he responded that IP was as good as 
Piezography, with the same type of long tonal range and smoothness.

"Don't seem to be sleazy?" This is a weird statement! To jump to the 
conclusion initially that , just because a tiny company does not have 
the resources to send samples of prints with any ink and paper is 
simply absurd, if not stupid.
