I bet it works better on the 4000, not that that helps you any. And 
all I can say is that it works well on my 9500, now all I need to do 
is get him to write the rest of the driver so I can do head mapping, 
and link channels differently from the "normal" CcMmYK that it is 
now. The only other thing I think it might need is a different CCM as 
I don't think the windows type works as well as the newer 
Heidelberg/Apple/Adobe engines. But I'll start that push later, I've 
still got most of a year left.

And the only other RIP that claims to have the same amount of ink 
control is from Onyx, but it didin't want to work on my sytem, so I 
could never verify this (and it's twice the price).

You may never need to make an ink curve like this, but it's good to 
know that you can if need be:
