Hi
I have been using ImagePrint for many years with various iterations of the Epson Stylus Pro 4000 (now 4900). I am not a commercial printer and use ImagePrint for fine art printing (or at least as close to "fine are" as my photography will get me). Yes, it is expensive. But when compared to either paying for professional profiling of various media, or purchasing X-Rite i1Photo Pro 2 Color Management Kit for Photographers at over $1,200, I prefer the cost of IP. I use an NEC PA-302 color monitor and while no profiling is perfect, I find then colors are extremely close to what the monitor internally profiled with Spectraview shows on screen. I'm thinking of adding a 44" printer (leaning toward Canon despite having used Epson for many, many years - due to the infamous ink clogging problems and Epson's notorious poor customer support - but that's a whole 'nother issue. I will have to swallow hard to purchase IP for that printer given it's cost. But I will likely go with it, given what it has provided me, particularly in its most recent iteration.
