RE: [Digital BW] Re: QuadTone RIP 2.1d clarification...

I'd like a couple of things.
 
First, from a command window, type SET>env.txt 
 
This will create a text file in the current directory named env.txt. Please
send me that file.
 
Second, run a print job in pipe mode. This will create a log file,
QTRLog.txt.
 
There will be three lines in the QTRgui part of the log. These are the
command lines for executing the QTR printing. Delete everything from the log
except for these three lines. Then place double quotation marks around the
executable names on each line--i.e. "c:\program
files\QuadToneRIP\bin\QuadToPrinter.exe"
 
Then place a vertical bar "|" at the end of each of the first two lines with
spaces before and after. Then delete the end of line character after each
vertical bar and space.
 
Now save this file as QTR.bat. It will be a batch file that should run your
print job. Run the batch file and see if it will print.
 
Let me know the results.

Steve,
I'm on w2k, dual Xeon CPU kernal.  Pipe mode does not work, batch does.

I'm not sure what info you would like to have?
If I turn on debug, it stops executing when the terminal "rawprint" comes
up, task manager goes to 100% idle, and nothing more ever happens.
If I click away rawprint, the log error is QuadToPrinter "No pages found"

If there is more information I can dig up, let us know.

When I run batch mode, QuadToPrinter runs at 100% on one cpu for what seems
like a very long time before the page actually begins spooling.  This is
printing the step-21.tiff file.

John
