Digital BW, The Print

Yeah it seems ErgoSoft's web site hasn't been updated in a while. Note: StudioPrint 
and PosterPrint are identical products with the exception that PosterPrint is 
postscript-enabled and StudioPrint is Raster only. Both products are currently at 
version 10. So some of the screenshots and info on their site are useful, albeit in a 
limited way. A call or email will get you a fully functional demo.

I haven't used StudioPrint to drive any of the desktop models, but the manual clearly 
lists the 3000 and 5000 series as being suported.

A supported printer is one for which StudioPrint has a built-in driver. Once you select 
the proper driver and plug in a spectrophotometer, you can load any inks you want in 
the printer. The "quadtone" presets you use to build your first print environment 
simply select default ink positions and quality settings. Change whichever of these 
settings you want. The presets are supplied as a convenience. For example, if you're a 
retired chemist and developed your own inkset, load them in the printer, select the 
positions and...well here's the hard part. Decide, based on individual ink densities, 
where you want crossover points. I.e. Where does the "Cyan ink" kick in, ramp up to 
max density, and fade out, deferring to "Black ink" laydown. Happily that's all still 
beyond me, or else I'd never sleep...> 

Keep in mind, ErgoSoft is the developer of StudioPrint and IJM is one of a number of 
resellers. Certainly things would be less confusing with an up-to-date site from 
ErgoSoft, but any technical  pre-sales questions can be addressed directly to 
ErgoSoft.
