Misinformed woud be a better description... the 2000p may have a few
limitations compared to some of the dye ink printers, or under changing light
sources, but it certainly can print thousands of colors, and you certainly
need to have your monitor set at least that high to view images you are going
to print on it. That, plus good custom profiles for the monitor and the
printer will offer excellent results from this machine.
