Digital BW, The Print

I've just entered the digital printing world with the purchase of an 
Epson 1800.  I've got a large inventory of 4X5 and 8X10 B&W negs that 
I plan to scan for digital rendering.  I was wondering if anyone has 
infromation about the planned availability of QTR for the 1800 or 
other RIPs.  An earlier post mentioned that Roy was working on it. 

Thanks,

John Gavan
