Re: QTR roll on Mac

2005-03-15 by john dean

Roy,

I'm working out of the latest version of Panther with QTR and the 9600 and the 
roll feature works fine, once you find the setting. But, I am using USB not 
Firewire. I believe the firewire connection is just going to send the file over 
there faster right? Not increase the actual print head movement itself right? 
Yes its very slow but very outstanding output for toned monochrome.
