I know nothing about this vendor or about commercial printing of photographic books, but I know a little about general commercial printing. In that area, "4-color" means "full color" as opposed to only one or two tints other than black and gray. A 4-color press is definitely _not_ what we inkjet users think of as 4 color inkjet printers. So their claim to make "finest 4-color prints" may simply mean that their machines produce full spectrum images. You would have to see samples to evaluate the quality.

Thanks for the pointer, I checked their website. Their claim to deliver "Finest 4-color prints" does not give me much confidence but I mailed them and asked some fairly straight questions about their B&W performance. I'll await their response and will keep you posted.
