Curiosity got the best of my, I remoted in.

I don't think I can easily recreate the text as its been manipulated.. I'll just have to go with it.  I'm doing a sample print anyway so we'll see what he thinks.

My 2 cents; I opened it in PS, saw it was an RGB image, and converted it to Grayscale. I choose from one of 2 options usually; save the file as a grayscale, and print from Illustrator, or, convert to Bitmap mode, output resolution to 1200, 50 line, 22.5°, ellipse dots, and print from Illy. However, I just did both, and printed from AccuRip, and from a laser printer, and from another inkjet we use for color comps, from within PS. You will most likely have to play with curves to compensate for dot gain, because as we all know, it's going to gain...
