Newbie Problem with QTRGui and QTR PC Beta 3

2004-11-19 by Walt Farrell

I have a 2200 printer on a Windows XP Home system, and I've just 
installed QTR PC Beta 3 and QTRGui.  I've told QTRGui to print an image, 
and it says that QuadTone RIP is printing, but nothing happens.

The QTRLOG1.txt file contains:

ERROR: Unable to write raster data to driver!

Can someone help with interpreting that error message and suggest a fix?

(And yes, I know the PPI is lower than optimal, but I don't think that 
should be the cause of the error.)

	Thanks,
	Walt
