I'm going to have to disagree with the GMB rep. We use the 'Lino for just such media with great success and have been doing so for years now. Each time they come out with a new device that 'replaces' the Lino I give them (forceful) feedback about the loss of a polarizing filter but it hasn't motivated them to add a Pol filter to any new instruments. It's one of a number of reasons why our bank of 'Lino/scans stays busy.
If you don't have one we can do the measurements for you as part of our measurement services. Contact our measurement jockey Pat Herold at herold (at) chromix (dot) com for more information if you need.

Steve
