Re: [Digital BW] QTR Help!

2005-02-25 by Steve Kale

Yeah I am an old dog!  Just haven't had to install QTR for ages - it just
works (with a few little glitches ;-)  ).  Wind back to the start of this
thread and maybe you can help the guy out - he's stuck back in 10.2 and when
he prints to one driver the other no longer works.  Problem communicating
with printer.  A clean install should be tried but I think he has tried that
already - albeit perhaps the old way....
