To anyone with experience with QTR on a Mac Epson 2200 UT inkset (not UT7) I have been having lots of problems getting setup some of them based upon the fact that MIS sent me mis-filled ink carts. Some tech issues getting CUPS to work on my computer with Panther. So, everything seems to be installed and working, but the prints are way off from what I am used to seeing with Piezography. I am using the UT-MK curves. The blacks are very weak (1.31) I am trying to follow the documentation to do a calibration but it seems to have several inconsistencies: 1) The documentation says to use the pattern test page "inkpattern.psd" but there is no such file included in the installer. The documentation says that the file is a cmyk file. I found a file called inkseparation.psd and inkseparation.tif but these are both RGB files. I tried to print them anyway but the prints were missing lots of patches and contained no text. I just downloaded the old beta 8 installer and sure enough the file is there, I will try it with that. 2) What is meant by the line " QuadTone RIP Curves is whatever curve set you want to split up into separate inks?" Any help getting through this would be GREATLY appreciated. My 1160 with Piezo is not working and I keep getting the blue selenium problem. I am on a MAJOR deadline to get some prints out the door for a customer by Friday. Thanks in advance. James Haney
