How well will it work to use QTR to control a 2200 using the UT-3D inkset?

Terry.

QTR and the UT-3D inkset should work very well together.  I believe Roy has
a beta 3D inkset on his 4000.  MIS should be shipping batches that have been
subjected to its new QC equipment and procedures within a week.  At that
point well have a stable enough inkset to start pumping out the profiles.

What's the best way to ship 13x19 Silver Rag prints?  With my silver 
prints, which were never larger than 11x14, I'd ship them with a cover 
sheet of acid free paper inside a polyethylene sleeve.  This would be 
sandwiched between 4 sheets of  cardboard and the edges taped.  Would 
using tubes be the best way to go?  If so, does anyone have any 
suggestions as to a brand, size, or supplier? I'm guessing that I should 
line the tube with archival paper.  Place another such sheet on the 
print and then gently roll this into a tube.  I'd appreciate any advice.

I've been taking my prints, putting a piece of acid free tissue paper 
on top, rolling it up, and shipping it using tubes from Yazoo Mills. 
15" long with end caps included. They had the best prices I could find 
and their tubes are so sturdy I think even the post office would have 
trouble crushing one.

Rob, thanks for the suggestion.  What diameter tube have you been using?

Peter;

Unles your paper came from a roll or is RC, it seems a shame to roll it 
up and stuff it in a tube. I always ship flat-put each print in a clear 
sleeve (clearbags.com)and sanwhich them between 2 or 3 sheets of 
currugated cardboard. Yes, more trouble, more cost, but the prints get 
there with their dignity intact.

Hi

Like Steve, I don't like the thought of rolling prints - too much can happen 
to them when unpacking.
We are in the UK and use Challoner Flyweight Envelope stiffeners - made from 
light corrugated plastic. See
http://www.challoner-marketing.com/
They are very light, strong and bend and bounce-proof, and don't cost very 
much.
