There's no urge for me to switch the 10000CF to quad inks yet. 
I would have to purchase a fast color printer first as a 
replacement. There was a 10000CF on Ebay in Europe I thought 
about and the new Canon W8400P seems a promising color machine 
so that's why I am looking in QTR's compatibility with the 
10000CF when the last is no longer needed for color. The 9000 
quad is aging.

I still would like to keep some toning in a quad set. Paul's 
latest Blue + Cyan + Warm Carbon is an ultra low gamut set 
that suits different paper whites better I think. On the other 
hand I have a sepia in the 9000 that is nice too. The minimum 
droplet size in the 10000CF is half the 9000's so there's a 
quality gain already. It is close to the 9600 droplet size.

Right now I just want to test roughly what changes the QTR 
10000 driver needs to give reasonable inklimits with the right 
droplet sizes. That can be done on a color machine too.
