Since I don't read the instructions until things don't work, and calibration has worked for me, try it with the slider at the right and indicating 100. (Worst case, if its wrong it would probably print a calibration page at 0% density that wouldn't waste much ink, and could be reprinted with the correct density!) There was one version of QTR that had a bug that needed a patch applied, I can't remember the details of the bug, or which version it was. The current version is 2.7.2 On 18/01/2012 02:36, Keith wrote: > > Been away from QTR for a while. Updated my computer, changed OS(from > Vista to W7-64).
