At the risk of asking an old question...

2002-10-03 by craygc

Two questions actually...

The first is, what are the main benefits/disadvantages in the choices 
between PiezoTone CIS and MIS CFS systems for printing digital B&W? 
Views, recommendations, things to look out for, etc.

The second, as the PiezoTone systems use their own custom print 
drivers, is there any knowledge on timelines for releasing them for 
the Mac OS-X operating system.

regards
Craig

So do we have a "truth in advertising" issue with those that claim to be 
able to get better resolution that is physically possible?

 From what I can conclude, the IP software is pretty much developmental 
code - maybe mature at some future date. The Sundace/Piezo driver ( 
whoever you want to believe ) is making claims to impossible resolution. 
So it looks like I will go with the 1280 and an MIS inkset until some 
stability (and hopefully truth) comes to the market. That will get me 
through untill we have some truth in advertising. Hopefully this 
technology is not dominated by a bunch of "rug merchants."
