Re: [QuadtoneRIP] Which Colorimeter/spectrophotometer?

2006-03-21 by Roy Harrington

The Display version is not sufficient.  All the other Eye-One packages 
are OK
and in fact are the same -- its just the software that is different 
which you
won't use for QTR anyway.

I don't know the Sequel product.  You just need to be able to read 
patches
on paper and get either density or Lab readings.  The Eye-One is 
probably
the best integrated though.
