Re: Soft proof for QTR and wireless printing.

2004-10-18 by Roy Harrington

Hi Jerry,

The proofing files (i.e. .psf files) all go into:
yourhome/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Color/Proofing/
There's an install file that copies them into the right place.

I haven't tried bluetooth and I'm not sure how you set up a
printer for bluetooth.  I've done wireless printing just using shared
printing -- that's simple just set "share printers" on the machine with
the printer.   Using the USB port on the airport is probably another
possibility but I haven't used that either.
