Don, Please call 1-510-244-2000 or FAX us at 1-510-244-2020 for information about our RenderPrint software. Prints from inside 3DS and / or prints standalone graphic file formats. Prints TIF, TGA, PCX, BMP, JPG, and GIF formats. Has 5 different difusion dithers and 6 different pattern dithers. Great support for all of the Canon printers. The secret to printing on an ink jet has to do with the fact the printer dot is bigger than what the printer resolution shows. I.E. the BJC800 can print at 360 x 360 dpi. However the dot size is bigger than 1/360th of an inch. We have a feature called dot saturation that allows you to adjust for the 'dot gain'. You set it based on the image / paper / ink combination. This also helps with the 'banding' that some of the ink printers display. Give us a call and we'll send you out some literature. Russ Insight Development

Russ: I've been interested in your RenderPrint software for a while now. I just had some info faxed to me. Some questions: 1. Included in the great support for Canon printers is there great support for the Fiery interface for Canon color copiers? 2. Is the Windows version available yet? 3. Will the Windows version be able to batch print a pile 'o files unattended as your DOS version does? Thanks, Bob 4.

Bob, 1. <<Fiery interface>> No, we have the specs but have not coded or tested this mode yet. 2. <<Windows version>> Is in beta test as we speak and 'should' ship in November. 3. <<batch print>> You bet! In fact the Windoze version is scriptable so you can make up your 'batch' file external to RPW and then call RPW with the script. Russ Insight Development

Russ: Thanks for the response. If you do include the Fiery/Canon printer combo in your supported printers and you need a testor let me know, I'll be glad to give it a workout. We currently run 6,000 color copies/prints per month. We are currently investigating the purchase of two Encad Novajet III plotters. Does RenderPrint support this new device? Will this unit be supported in the new Windows version of RenderPrint? Good news on the batch printing. Thanks again. Bob

Bob, <<need a testor>> Will do. Email me your company vitals such as mailing and shipping addr's and types of apps and equipment available. Make sure you include the Fiery/Canon on the list. <<Encad Novajet III>> Not listed directly except we already support the HP DJ650c's and the Encad Novajet III is using the DJ650c RTL, so you can use the HP650c driver. We will add the Encad Novajet III to the menu on the next build. Encad Novajet III will be supported in the RenderPrint for Windows version. Russ Insight Development

Russ: Thanks again for your quick response. I'll e-mail you my company's vitals in the morning. Bob
