Epson 4900/Fiery RIP?

We need to upgrade our proofer from an Epson 4800. The only target I care about matching is a SWOP2006#3sheet and only one paper. Our current proofing RIP doesn't support the 4900, and it could cost me $$$ to upgrade everything. Looks like I can get a new 4900 with a Fiery for about $3000. Will I be able to calibrate to what I need?
 
YES. No problem.

According to this IDEAlliance link SWOP | Certification: Certified Systems , the 7900 and 9900 with EFI rip are Gracol C1, SWOP C3 and SWOP C5 certified proofing systems. I don't know if the 4900 shares the same printing engine/color gamut (I assume so) but if it does you should be OK.

If something as old as 9600 can do Gracol or swop 3 would you think that the newest x900 series would do it too? it kind of makes no sense for epson to make a smaller gamut printer. What do you think? Or maybe you know any newer generation printer that HAS SMALLER gamut than the previous generations?
 
@stargate

You're right. I just wanted to point out the fact that 2 other printers from the same x900 series, coupled with the Fiery RIP, were actually SWOP certified.
