I'm with Carolyn. I have had some very nasty experiences with 
software that used dongles (little devices that plug into a parallel 
or serial port for copy protection). They are notorious for causing 
software conflicts and system crashes. I took a vow never to purchase 
software that required a dongle again. On that issue alone I would 
never buy ImagePrint or PiezoBW24Pro Rip. Plenty of other companies 
manage to protect their products without resorting to this decade old 
piece of junk.

My 2 cent rant on the topic.
