[Digital BW] R.I.P. Old Friend 2200 -> 2400...Carl

Carl,

Thanks for the tip.  I downloaded & installed 2.3.  By "script" do you
mean the gray-readme.rtf file in the \icc folder, or do you mean a
script as in instructions for creating a custom profile?  The rtf file
talks about using the canned profiles when printing with QTR, not
custom ones with Epson/ABW, so I'm not sure if this is what you
meant...can you clarify this?  Thanks.

Regards,
Clayton
