Color ink, gray ink makes no difference - same instructions for all. My instructions are at http://www.geocities.com/campfiredan/infoshare/Misc_Quad_info/Set_ink_colors .html Provided that the fates (and Geocities) allow you can sometimes get to that link. Probably have to cut and paste the URL into the address line since it is so long the email will chop it into two. Note I haven't updated this for Photoshop 6 but it works pretty much the same as PS 5. > Convert to CMYK using Dan's high bit method.
