Digital BW, The Print

David,

Ok, I see where you are now.  There are two main steps that you need to do.

First is Add the printer in the Print Center, look at the directions but the idea
is to <option>Add, go thru the Advanced menu and create a printer queue
with the name Quad3000.

Then you'll need to install curves for the printer/ink combo (this is what
creates the folders and files in CurveDropBox).  The 3000 isn't a printer I've
used so what's there is just an approximation.  Under CurveDesign>ExampleInks
there's a ink descriptor file called 3000-fs which should be your starting
point.  (click on Run-Quad-Profile and drop 3000-fs into the window and
hit return).

There's a lot more info in GettingStarted and Calibration.
