I'm not don't know if this applies, but I have PosterPrint 10 and a 2200 and a 7000 and there are no Quad options listed when you create a new Print Environment for the 2200. Also there are no options for individual control of the inks the way there are in the 7000 environment. Maybe this is something that is different in StudioPrint, but maybe Harald could ask Robert E. the next time he talks with him. You can linearize the inks in the 2200 which helps get you a neutral image, but I don't see any Quad options at least in Poster Print.
