And I would not advise someone to buy it for this kind of work. I
bought it for other reasons some years back and later on the
upgrade to 4.5. It would have been wiser if I had purchased the
Ergosoft Rip three years ago. Against my intuition I bought the
Wasatch then on an advice of another user. Wasatch isn't
interested in extending the RIP with some quad specific features
when I asked them. Ergosoft did so with Studioprint. I also get
the impression that Ergosoft is interested in getting better
dithering quality when I read that there are printer specific
dithering algorithms in that driver.
