Hi Rick,

The 7000 is a decent printer.  I'd recommend an inkset with 4 to 6
levels of gray
to get decent prints.  As Paul mentioned his Eboni-5 is one possibility.  The
Piezography K6's are another (inkjetmall.com).   In either case QTR can be used
for the printing.

A G4 533 is a bit old and slow but ought to work.  There is one
potential difficulty
with the USB port.  I had some trouble with my 7500 on 10.3.  I do have a fix
for this if you run into it.  (the error is Printer Not Responding).
