Digital BW, The Print

There no way that you can send print from a windows pc to a mac, the RIP only wants 
to be on a local usb printer and not a networked printer as far as I can tell. 

I have solved the problem on a temp basis and am now able to load my PS7 upgrade 
on my Mac. Now all I have to do is wait for Adobe to sort out my Camera Raw Plugin, 
they have promised a refund on this, so that I can purchase the Mac edition, why the 
hell they couldn't simply exchange it is beyond me.

The RiP on the MAC is well worth it. But to say you can't hang OSX is not possible is 
BS. I have had Safari Help hang and not be able to quit it, not even with "Forced Quit" 
and try shutting down a network PC while the MAC is saving a file to it. The MAC will 
lock up and you can do nothing until the PC is powered up and the file save is 
completed. Still, the switch is well worth it if only to get rip of not having a Windows 
Registry. BTW  you better like "Dragging and Dropping" ! 
If I could get all of my apps in on the MAC I would dump the PC in a heartbeat, but 
the fact is that there are so many apps that are PC only I don't forsee any chance of 
doing this. So the MAC is gong to be my Photo Editing machine while the PC is going 
to be for everything else. I still have to find a simple and in expensive way of getting 
my Canon 10D files converted from RAW to tiff using the MAC.

If anyone wants a sample print from the 2200 printed via the Quadtone RIP  please 
contact me and I would be willing to mail one or ten if I recieve a stamped self 
addressed envelope.
