I had worked with the Epson 5000 for nearly 4 years with a Fiery RIP and had
it matching a Matchprint easily within 95% accuracy. The Key is to use a
good CMYK profile from the device to are targeting and load it in as a
simulation using Colorwise pro Tools. Then in Colorwise, you adjust the
curves for that profile until the output matches an evaluation image from
the target device. This takes some rounds of adjusting but is certainly
attainable. This can be done with either the 1.1 or 1.3 version of the Fiery
Software. It is not very intuitive I will admit, but once you understand how
it works, it is simple to match any other device. My personal recommendation
is to use the Dupont Commercial Mat paper and print in 1440 dpi. 720 seems
to lose shadow detail drastically.
