Re: [Digital BW] QTR Mac - devil in the details

2004-09-13 by Steve Kale

Assuming mine are ok I think your hunch may be right - I definitely set up
the Epson USB printers and then installed QTR.  I can see that if I select
USB rather than Epson USB then I would be setting up a printer to run with
CUPS-Gimp Print, but mine are definitely set up by selecting Epson USB
instead.
