Digital BW, The Print

With QTR, you can determine which one comes on first.  Just look at the
graphs or starting numbers.  (I'm on Windows.  I'm not sure what differences
there are in the interface for Mac.)  The tricky part will be seeing how
much adjustment you can make in a curve before artifacts show up.

Thanks Paul, I'll give this a try. Do you know what the relative 
firing order is for the C, R, and B channels in the 1800?
