Oops. I've learned subsequently that Tek has 3, 4 and 1 color ribbons. Alleged limitation to Y-M-C was a mistake in the Mac magazine from which I got the information. However, a Tek person did tell me that they think you get better black from Y+M+C than from a separate black pass, at least for dense renderings. Sorry for reproducing misinformation.
