Digital BW, The Print

Carl,

I don't know officially what's in the kit, but it should be neutral quads
plus small gamuts. Not sure if it includes the dilute small gamuts or
the full strength. It's the only way to deal with the metamerism of the 
quads, and not have bright colors to profile or show dots. Should
work fine on newer machines as far as highlight dots go, but
with 7000 - type heads may not be as smooth depending on profiling.
Of course, they are marketing the kit to 7-ink printers, so that's not
an issue.

The official release came out  8/19/04. You can read it at dp&i:

I expect that they will ship the kit with profiles for the Darkroom Glossy 
which should make life easier for anyone new to profiling - especially
with three toners.
