Re: [Digital BW] Re: review of new StudioPrint 10 RIP

2003-06-11 by Luke Granfield

I'm not don't know if this applies, but I have PosterPrint 10 and a 2200 and
a 7000 and there are no Quad options listed when you create a new Print
Environment for the 2200. Also there are no options for individual control
of the inks the way there are in the 7000 environment. Maybe this is
something that is different in StudioPrint, but maybe Harald could ask
Robert E. the next time he talks with him. You can linearize the inks in the
2200 which helps get you a neutral image, but I don't see any Quad options
at least in Poster Print.
