All WRONG! The Fargo Primera printer is dye sub (well, I assume everybody buys this printer for dye sub). YOU CAN'T USE ADPro or TruePrint for this printer. The printer can print far more than 8 colors per printer dot while ADPro and TruePrint outputs just 3 bits, using it's own dithering to simulate 24 bit. The best way to output currently is to use HAM8 (or HAM on non-AGA) as output mode with an image sized to approx. 2000^3000. This way you can get pretty close to the technical resolution of the printer, though, color correction remains a problem. Now, I got an order for a special Studio version that does output 24 bit for the Fargo Primera. The software should become available this month. Let's see. I don't have any info/printer yet, but it's allready at my boss with lot's of dye sub paper for testing. Also, I plan a screen matching database for the Fargo Primare for use with Studio V2. So you can be sure, the 24 bit colors on your monitor are not changed during printing. — Wolf Faust, Am Dorfgarten 10, 60435 Frankfurt, Germany —
