So it sounds as if the Roland doesn't use hexachrome to create a greater
color gamut, but rather to make up for the lost of gamut created by the
pigmented inks?

If I put dye based inks in the Roland, will I be able to match the
output of the HP?

Both printers are being quoted to me at the same price of 22K USD.
