QTR-Quadtone RIP

Anybody tried the MediaStreet QuadBlack (GQ2) ink with QTR?  Is it as
good as the InjetMall version?  I haven't read much about it here.

Tom, I'm sorry I haven't posted much about GQ2 sooner; I've been waiting for Media Street to get it into production. I designed GQ2 for them months ago, and this week I finally got some inks they made so I could run final tests. They're perfect.

Briefly, GQ2 includes two blacks, four grays, and a gloss optimizer. 

One prints with matte black or photo black neutral, depending on the paper. There are two warm grays, dark and light, and two cool grays, dark and light. And the gloss optimizer goes on reflective papers in light areas so the reflection is the same everywhere. Profiles let Roy's QuadTone RIP print these inks cold, warm, neutral, platinum, and more.

I'll try to make more details available next week.
