on it, but will any updates be required for it?

>>also i was reading that Leopard has some printing improvements and

wondering if you could enlighten us Mac users as to how, if any, this
is going to affect our relationships with our printers and color
management.

We have done some testing, but can't make any conclusive statements yet 
(we've been a bit busy finishing our new product line...) Certainly 
Leopard will be important to us, and we'll give updates as needed top 
priority once the OS ships. My understanding about new Leopard 16 bit 
printing is that it would require new drivers to take advantage of it. 
My understanding of CUPS improvements is that they won't relate to 
standard installations of drivers from your printer vendor, just 
printing via generic CUPS drivers... but I could be wrong on either or 
both counts.

Assuming I am correct on both counts, neither item would really effect 
most current printer models for most users.

By the way, I'll be printing with the new Canon PRO9500 printer at 
PhotoPlus this week. So stop by the Datacolor booth  (hard to miss, its 
under the big Spyder3 banner) if you are interested in seeing custom 
profiled results with this device.

And at 10:20 Thursday morning I'll be speaking in the 500 seat theater 
on the show floor. Public demand is for me to talk about the new 
features in the new Spyder3 products, so thats likely to be what I'll 
be covering.

my question is in regards to issues involving Apple's new operating
system and PFP compatibility. i'm quite sure you've done your testing
on it, but will any updates be required for it?

also i was reading that Leopard has some printing improvements and
