I actually think that there is at least one application, ImagePrint, that

final print is restricted to 8 bits, though.
Onyx Rip's accept 16 bits and print 16 bits to a very large list of
printers.
This is not a new thing. The RIP I used to be responsible for
had 12 bits of precision at the output. Given the dynamic
range of inkjet output, plus the visual masking effect of
the screening, and taking into account the limits of practical
color profiles, this seemed more than adequate. 16 bits is almost
certainly overkill (but convenient from a programming perspective).
