[Digital BW] Re: ImagePrint 4.0/ pigment vs carbon pigment

Todd,

The short answer is not, not with this RIP.

However, that would indeed be the Holy Grail. I believe that 
eventually that is where this industry will lead. 

Perfect Future;

A non-fading, no color change, wide gamut dye in set that has no 
metamerism, no color crossover and will produce a perfectly neutral 
WYSIWYG monitor to print output. 

I believe that this will happen with time. The market is there and 
technology will eventually catch up.

KOdak recently bought Encad and is working on lightfast dye inksets. 
If anyone can do it they certainly can with over 100 years of 
experience working with photographic dyes.

Oh but to dream.

Mike
