hi Jules -

You'll have to check with Media Street for exact timing; I'm just the
designer. 

I believe they have the carts and inks now, but I have not created
printing curves for the 2200 yet. I expect to do that next, probably
within a few weeks.

Thanks Richard,

I went to the site however nothing yet. Perhaps they want to wait and 
have the curves ready before releasing the inks.

Well cool

Yes. Please check their web site for details.

I've been assuming these would use the same curves. Is there any reason
to expect otherwise?

I have yet to delve into the nuts and bolts of QTR but I think at the 
very least you have to rename the files and change any reference to 
R200 to R300, etc. I tried simply installing the R200 driver and using 
the R200 printer model, and QTR crashed...

Thanks Steve -

I'll copy Roy on this so he can address the driver issue. I expect the
curves, however, will be the same. I hope.

Yes,
I meant to say that they don't mention the 2200 carts yet.
