QTR-Quadtone RIP

I also talked with the folks at InkJet mall.  The K7 carts are 
available for the 4000 ($525 a set if memory serves).  They do indeed 
say QTR is the software to use with these inks.  When I asked about 
them providing QTR curves, they said it was "not difficult" for me to 
do them using QTR with my spectro.

Hmmm, wondering if I should spring for the new inks.
