I'm sure that IJC is building 16 bit transfer curves, but doesn't OPM downsample to 8 bit just 
before printing?  That's my impression but I've never seen it in the documentation.  I'll be 
happily surprised if it's otherwise.

Regardless, applying the transfer curve in 16 bit is a HUGE advantage.  IMHO.
