Can someone confirm?
I can't confirm or deny it but my understanding is the newer printers
(10000, 5500) use a variable dot size which "reduces" the effects of the
metamerism. I really haven't seen either up close (or with the same image
printed side by side with an older 9500/5000) to know if this is true or
not. People who have used the newer printers, who's opinions I respect say
they do indeed seem to exhibit less metamerism.
