Digital BW, The Print

There has been a thread on 8/16 bit handling by the driver/RIP on 
the colorsync list 10 months ago. About 10 messages that I could 
stack in one message if there is an interest in it.  In essence 
the drivers accept 8 bit, internally 12/16 bits is used in all 
drivers for the computation (tables), the printer is driven with 
8 bit. Mac, Windows, Linux alike. There are some exceptions but 
it is vague what happens in that case.
