Re: [Digital BW] Newbie with QTR install problem on Fedora

2004-02-20 by romanatybwg

thanks Roger.
making progress here. I assume (bad word again) that the modification
had to be made to create-quadtoneppd.command in PPDs folder.

I've done this andran Run-Quad_profile again, dropped the curve in the
terminal window - all ok.

Not sure if I was supposed to run Run-Install-Curves also. 

Ran Webmin but the curves I enterd are not showing up in the driver
for my printer- don't know if it's normal.


I modified David Wroblewski script, runs fine and I got something
printed, didn't examine for the quality 'cause I used cheap papeDoes
the fact that something got printed indicate that some curves are
loaded ? If yes, which since I don't see them in Webmin.

We  are getting close ?
