Digital BW, The Print

Roy,

You are correct.  I didn't create any curves, but I was trying to add the curves you 
created.  They weren't adding because I forgot to change the Printer name in the 
curve descripter files.  Woops!  Once I changed those, it worked fine.

2 things I noticed:
(1) I tried adding the new 2200 curves that were available on your site, but simply 
changing the printer names did not work for me.  I had to take the old 2200 curves 
and redo them to match the content of the new files. The redone old curves added 
fine.

(2) The other thing is in the print dialog, under printer features, in basic settings.  
The media type and resolution settings are missing?  I went into the printcenter and 
made  the QTR printer my default, but those two settings is still missing.  I have a 
2200 by the way.

This always happens to me.  I'm always forgetting one or two steps!  

Thank you!
