Importance of UV on Eye One Photo

Hello,

I am going to be purchasing an Eye One Photo to created RGB print profiles for the Epson driver on a 9600 and to read grayscale linearization patches in the Studio Print RIP. I print my black and white with Piezotones on Hanmuehle (sp?) Photo Rag 188 and color on Epson’s photo semi-gloss and double weight mat. Is the UV model of the Eye One Photo a necessary upgrade?

Thanks, Drew Harty

Dear Drew:

It is our experience that the EyeOne Match software included with the EyeOne Photo does quite a good job and the UV filter is not usually necessary. There are varying opinions on this, though.
