Dear Ernst,
               I am sorry my English is not up to your standard!!!
   
  Appologies to anyone in advance if it seems like I am repeating myself.
   
  Tech Note:-
   
  The color module in the R9 pipeline is a true 16-bit in/out processor: 8-bit data are converted UP to 16-bits. 
  Other modules in the pipeline use data types appropriate for their purpose: the Scale module, for example, uses floating point arithmetic.
   
  I hopr that simplifies it for you.
   
  Regards

16 bit throughout data flow is something else than accepting
16 bit/channel images. I do see the last in the PocketRip PDF
specs but no mention of the first. The Epson driver accepts 16
bit/channel images as well but makes them 8 bit again before
it starts the processing.

The Sundance pages for R9 etc have no reference to 16
bit/channel throughout data flow either. I would be surprised
if the PockerRip got an upgrade to 16 bit so recently.

So what is it John ?
