I think the press release made it pretty clear.  This product consists of
Paul's curves (or similar) converted to ICC profiles for easy application.
If paul's curves work for the Epson 3000, I would think that these ICC
profiles should work about the same. And I've seen some of Paul's prints
from his 3000 with the VM inks and they are stunning, Epson driver and all.
