Digital BW, The Print

The only deviation from this is, as noted in earlier posts, for PC users
using QTR GUI.  Here you can't do the "on the fly" conversion.  You have to
do it manually - after saving the edited file tagged as QTR Gray Lab - so
convert to matte or photo as appropriate and save as a tiff.  Print the tiff
as normal.
