Re: [Digital BW] Strange happenings with the 4000 and the QuadtoneRIP

2005-03-12 by Roy Harrington

Steve and Carl,

I've had a couple reports of this on Panther 10.3.   It seems to be rare but
some people keep getting it.  From what I've been able to decipher its a
timing problem in the Panther USB driver.  Way back I had a completely
different usb problem with my 7500.   I've been using the Jaguar USB driver
on my Panther system because of the 7500 but I also have never had a problem
with the 4000.  So I've started suggesting people run the Jaguar USB if they
have problems and it seems to cure it.  The Jaguar USB is available on my
website -- just scroll down to Panther USB Error.  Download and install it.
If this works for you let me know, I'd like to get more evidence that this
really is a fix.

Roy
