Digital BW, The Print

Todd,

Sorry, I missed a response to one of your questions.

You can in fact print a grayscale image from either a single channel 
grayscale file or an RGB multi-channel file. That is a color 
grayscale image can be sent to the RIP and printed utilizing the Quad 
tone inks. Or you can desaturate the color and print a grayscale RGB 
image. The choice is yours.

Last night a took a quick shot with my digital camera. I the sent the 
resulting 37mb tif file to the ImagePrint 4.0 RIP and printed it on 
the 7000 with the MIS FS inks. It was a lovely result considering 
that I did no manipulation of any kind.

Pretty cool.
