I'm the programmer of Studio. Now Studio is distributed by MacroSystem in Germany, wich is also interested in selling the Fargo printer. Because of this, we surely thought of a way to make real use of the Fargo 6 bit using the Studio software. Now I got an order for developing a special version of Studio for easy printing 24 bit pictures on with the dye sub. Don't ask me how this soft will be distributed and priced. I assume it will be included for free with the dye sub upgrade kit in Germany. Anyway, I don't think it will be real expensive. Because of time reasons, this software will be pretty simple (ie. like ADPro's PrefPrinter saver). But with Studio V2 we hope to offer a real screen matching system for it – wich I think, is a must for these kind of printers. Otherwise it get's real expensive and near to impossible to get accurate 24 bit color output as you see it on your gfx card. — Wolf Faust, Am Dorfgarten 10, 60435 Frankfurt, Germany —
