Hi Geert, THe machine (I like to call designjets machines) is a refurbished unit. That is what the R denotes. The cutter is indeed user-replaceable. Regarding the driver, you can install any 90 driver as the cutter is by default on the printer and you'll be able to use the cutter. I think it will be more tricky to drive the roll-feed unit with the driver.......;).
Regarding the color management, could you write a bit more how your workflow is? Operating system, application, what the setttings are in the print dialog and driver windows.

Right now I'm looking into color management.. . I calibrated my monitor with Adobe Gamma, took some time but at least when I print from PS 'sans' ICM the print looks exactly like on the monitor. ( IIyama HM204DTA at 5500K ) With ICM (hp profiles) I only get dark yellowish-greenish, swamp-like prints. Management by PS or by printer driver makes no difference I tried soft-proofing in PS and there I see just a very small, acceptable shift in color. Any ideas?
