Interesting that a printer thinks they can use RGB (!) They of course mean that the RIP they use converts the RGB image to a monochrome ymck better than it can convert an RGB monochrome to ymck monochrome. inkjets are different again as few if any photographers go anywhere near ymck printers these days, most of us have ymcpmpck or ymcpmpcrgk or even ymcpmpcpbrgk printers ;) thank gawd the printer rip takes care of the conversions so well, a shame that printers and graphic designers too are becoming as confused as most photographers about the whole colour mess :( !!! k
