anyone can me help how works that prestige class, from Dragon #297 (July 2002) ??

remember, core class above 20 dont gain spells per day, but only core class above 20 gain 10th spells, see that text:

Spells Per Day/Spells Known: At every level, the arcane lord gains new spells per day and spells known as if she had also gained a level in an arcane spellcasting class to which she belonged before adding the prestige class. She
does not, however, gain any other benefit a character of that class would have gained (such as bonus metamagic or item creation feats). If already an epic spellcaster, the character gains only the benefit noted under the Spells entry for that epic class. If the character possessed more than one arcane spellcasting class before she became an arcane lord, she must decide which class will receive the additional spellcasting level for purposes of determining spells per day when she adds the new level (although she must choose a class in which she can cast 10th-level arcane spells).


I would interpret it to mean that the caster level increases although the spells per day would not increase. As you have pointed out, in order to cast 10th level spells, you need Improved Spell Capacity, which requires you to be 20th level in a spellcasting class which means that you do not get any additional spells per day when your caster level increases.


Well, A Wizard 17/Bard 6 would benefit from the increased spellcasting.
