- Hello,
- Does anyone know if future IRIX releases will support
- the Seiko ColorPoint Professional (300DPI 24Bit Dye Sublimation)
- printer in system software in the future? I was hoping for
- support in imgprint or the SGI postscript printing package
- (which I cannot remember the name of). I have a demo model
- here and was able to get it to print usinng the Seiko 8bit
- driver using a raw data mode (-o"-u -t") but it required that
- I manually scale the images externally (forced printing at 300DPI).
- One key factor (due to its current lack of PostScript
- support) for our purchase would be that IRIX would support the
- printer (or I could buy an SGI supportted addon product that
- would).
- Thanks,
