Au Contrer Mr.Gill.There is not a huge difference between 8 bit and 16 bit
printing, but using Onyx PosterShop to run my Roland 8 channel Hexachrome
printer,printing high quality digital captures (Better Light) of paintings
with a 16 bit work flow, the quality of the color transitions in 16 bit vs.
8 bit is obvious.
