I'm having exactly the same problem and of course the problem log doesn't 
help because it doesn't appear at all when the program won't print.  I find 
that if I turn off the printer, restart the program, click the print button 
and *then* turn the 2200 back on it usually works.  I would say I have 
problems 2/5 times and there must be a little bug in the program 
somewhere.  But...oh...the print quality - wow.  It will certainly make my 
workflow a little easier if this problem is fixed with an updated 
version.  That said, I've very grateful to Mr. Harrington and Mr. Billard 
for this wonderful, inexpensive RIP.  I use a Windows 2000 computer for 
editing and just recently found out from a friend that Quadtone RIP was 
available for Windows.    I've been making test prints on a 2200 with stock 
inks and an 1160 with UT inks. Interestingly enough, I prefer the 2200 
prints so far - which is quite surprising.
