[Digital BW] Re: quadtone curves in OS X

2004-11-03 by Tyler Boley

Steve, I'm curious so I won't pass on advice more complex than
necessary. I haven't had to deal with this particular problem myself
so am only passing on advice from others.
I had the impression from various reports that the Panther/Gimp driver
combo made it difficult to consistantly select the Espon driver with
the default gimp drivers still installed.
Is that not the case, is it as simple as you suggest? There seemed to
be a lot of confusion about this when Panther was released.
