I very much look forward to reading your observations on the septone 
system vs. IP.

My concern with the former is the high price of the ink carts ($18 
apiece).  But I can't say that I'm crazy about the price of the IP 
RIP, or Colorbyte's rather restrictive support and upgrade policies.

Have you read Clayton's review of the last print exchange?  I found 
it very interesting that the plain old, vanilla Epson driver on the 
2200 coupled with custom Gretag-Macbeth profiles fared as well, if 
not better, than these RIPs.
