what is IJC? was: Re: ImagePrint

Bill,

for the moment IJC is for Mac OS only. It wouldn't hurt to let bowhaus know 
there is interest for a Windows version (though they are very aware of it!).


Briefly: 
This is two pieces of software: OPM  (Open PrintMaker) which actually prints 
to supported printers (1160, 1280, 2200, 7000 etc)  and is free.  And IJC 
(InkjetControl) which  makes profiles (useable only with OPM) and costs about 
$200. 
OPM/IJC gives you control over each jet (up to 7), and is independent of any 
ink or paper bundles. You can adapt it to any materials of your choice. Having 
a densitometer is important for accurate profiles, but in a pinch, you can get 
there by eyball if you have an existing good grayscale.  
Currently it is for grayscale TIFF files only. Accepts 8 bit, prefers 16bit and 720 
dpi, but lower dpi (above 360) is acceptable too.

For more info and download:

Also, we have discussed this here at length, and you can search the archives 
for more details.
