Yes it does. The Gloss Optimizer cartridge basically puts a glossy
clear coating over the print to even out the surface.

Thanks for the reference to comp.periphs.printers. Went there and
found no real info yet. I guess it's to early for info from anyone
with field experience.

Try the printing forum at DPReview.com, too; it's fairly active and
there are a lot of very knowledgable lurkers who might pop up with an
answer to your question, or at least a good estimate of when the
printers are going to be released.
