QTR-Quadtone RIP

For this reason I would ordinarily abandon the QTR - but the image quality we get when using the 2880 and uni-directional setting is so much better, there is no comparison. I didn't realize an inkjet print could look so good.

I think that the banding problem, for that case, rely more in QTR driver than the printer not being able to print near the border. I made some 11x14 borderless at it prints OK although I don't have the curve option that QTR offers.
