Alan,
        Our "PocketRIP" is both 16bit and is a plugin to PhotoShop, it is also both Mac and PC. We are currently negotiating with Canon for the printing sdk and a Machine on which to work.

Not only that, but driving a printer directly, rather than via the
Windows GDI interface, is a whole different ball game. Maybe the guys
on the gimp-print project will have a go at producing a driver for
this printer. I assume QTR uses GDI, which is (currently) limited to 8
bits per channel.
