QTR-Quadtone RIP

Hi
I followed Paul & Roy advices. With Photoshop (I'm on a Mac, Photoshop CS3) I select "no colour management" in Photoshop, then, in the printer dialog, choosing Quad-MIS printer, I go to the QuadToneRip selection and in the dialog box, I chose for curve 1 the proper curve for the paper I use (I work with Red River Polar matt and Paul did a good work in making that curve).

I hit print and there it goes. For my own setup, I made a curve in Photoshop just to equalize what I see on the screen and what will be printed.

Hope this helps
