Hi David,

Hm, even more odd that it was once considered a worthwhile driver feature but is no longer there- seems like a regression of functionality. I suppose it doesn't really affect people who aren't using devices such as print profilers? I asked the Canon tech guy to pass back this lack of feature to the driver development team, but maybe it would be worthwhile a company such as yourselves approaching them about it?

In any case, I shall print out the patches and send through the files once I've read the patches - thanks for this!

James

Seems odd of Canon since a good deal of design/photo professionals like Macs and the Canon MG series is currently the only A4 sized printer with grey inks, as far as I'm aware (and the output looks pretty good).
