Duane,

Would could Gutenprint do that QTR cannot? I'm currently using QTR on 
a "medium-advanced level", using the QTR algorithms for curve creation. 
I expect this to be insufficient to get the best out of 
eboni/carbon/cone-6 inksets. But the option to create user curves 
should bring this much further.

I could consider to run a linux printserver iso a windows-based one. 
But I'm only going to do that if they're real advantages.
