I'd want to see a colour triangle to see which colours were available
to this new process that I couldn't get already.  I'd also be suspicious
that it would be highly sensitive to the type of paper used (absorbtion
of the ink into the paper, etc.) and that HP were going to tell me that
their new printer would work only with their own-brand paper.
