"Glop" = Gloss Optimizer. MIS sells a version of it. It is experimental at this point. What we are most interested in is integrating it into the inkset like with the R800 in order to eliminate gloss differentials and bronzing. I can't say how well it'll work at this point, but there have been some promising experiments.

I'm sure I've not been watching the ball very closely so I'm curious about the discussions about glop. I'vs gathered from some of the latest threads that it is a fixative or coating medium used to coat and remove or reduce bronzing with glossy surface papers. Where is it sold? I assume it is applied via a special cart but how does one do that through software/work flow/printer driver? Does it require a septone printer and how does it affect the print head?
