Digital BW, The Print

About 5 months ago there was some discussion in the Epson Wide 
Format group about adapting the Epson 4000 to use the gloss 
optimizer. The thread died out after a few days without any 
resolution but perhaps it will be picked up here.  At that time no 
one thought the idea was crazy, just ahead of its time since almost 
no one had even received the (then hard to get) Epson 4000.
