They are touting this as superior to G&J but the main advantage I can see is the machine only uses one channel for the marker fluid and the others use the standard Epson ink. This allows the machine to be used as a proofer. The disadvantages are that you cannot shift heads when they go bad. The advantage is that you don't need maintenance fluid which gets expensive. Every time I have to change the maintenance fluids and marker fluid in all the channels in the 7600 it's about $1000.
Anyone know anything about this machine?

G&J should not be concerned about anything since they are the only reputable Inkjet CTP company out there.... Beware of the small guy people.... they get the money and leave you hanging! G&J has deep resources, R&D money and the manpower to handle this technology. As I stated before if I had to buy the low cost decent quality INKJET CTP systems, then G&J will be your best bet. Other than that well can you spell "L-A-S-E-R"
