QTR-Quadtone RIP

Thanks Richard.Cone did send me some output samples on HPR 308.One
with NK7, the other sepia.Really nice samples.West Coast imaging sent
me three K3 samples printed with their custom profiles, one each on
HPR, Epson Luster, and Silver Rag.All very nice as well.I don't have
room for both the 4800 and a 4000, so the 4800 is it.I kinda wanted to
play with the K3 inks first, since I have a whole set, before trying
Cone's or MIS.So I was wondering if QTR would be the way to start with K3
