QTR-Quadtone RIP

all,
I am getting back into the BW printing game after quite a while away.  I have basically forgotten the workflow for QTR.  I have tried several links but all seem _just_ a bit more advanced than I need.  I'm talking basic here.

Just point me to one place and then ignore my question forever.  I don't mean to write an "RTFM" post but everyone here is writing stuff way more advanced.  

I am on:
Windows Vista 64 bit
Qimage
QTR(gui)
Epson 2200
UT3D inkset

For example:
-editing of photo only in PS?  Can I output from Qimage?  
-seems I have to set it to greyscale before printing, right?
-does it matter what I pick for settings in QTR, just to get started, based on the above inkset/printer combo (which is not one of the ones listed)?

thanks and sorry
allan
