Digital BW, The Print

either of those options are possible with this as well, in the first pass, by setting up the 
spot channel as wished, and additional canvas size if you want a full bleed. I don't know if 
StudioPrint will let me print a full bleed, never had need for it before. If not I suppose a 
slight trim.
Obvioulsy not as effortless as a printer with built in GO, but as a single pass system the 
GO is not seen as a separate surface with this either.

There are a number of ways to deal with this second pass that people are commenting on, 
I just wanted to make no attempt to disguise it with these samples.

It's good to know what people notice, to know what to address down the line. Mostly I'm 
interested in honest opinions about the print "look".

Clearly the HP is a major player in the evolution of all of this.
