Re: QTR & 2100/2200 (Network not required - Update).

Sorry, forget lpt3 suggestion. It doesn't work now. I'm sure I got it 
working but now I can't recreate it. Lpt1 through parallel cable 
works though. I have summarised the setup:
 
1. Set up Quad2200 share name in sharing tab of Printer Properties.
2. Set up printer pooling and tick lpt1 in ports tab of Printer 
Properties.
3. Plug in parallel cable.
4. Make sure no other printer drivers are set to lpt1. If so, change 
them to print to file.
5. Edit quadtoneprint.bat and alter >lpt3 to >lpt1 in imagetoraster 
command. Optionally rem out net use commands. Save bat file.
 
Drag print file to print-2200.bat.
 
For some reason the QTRgui program won't work when set up like this. 
Maybe someone has an answer to this.

All the best.
