Re: Baffled over inability to print using QTR with new computer

2014-05-03 by <docsock41@...>

I had been hoping for slightly more constructive responses to my problem in using the new computer. The issue was not really about replacing the old computer, and whether or not it was justified, but, rather, about how to get the Lenovo M93p computer using QTR to print on the Epson 2880.

Incidentally, the old XP computer was 9 years old, typically froze one or more times during each computer session, fairly consistently lost contact with my LAN after sleep plus had difficulties reconnecting with the LAN (other computers on the network did not have any of these problems), and inserted strange marks and symbols in various documents. Besides, it needed more memory and speed in handling large photo scans (from 4x5 negs). Microsoft's non-support-of-XP-decision was, as they say, the straw the broke ...... (And, it had been well protected by an anti-virus program during all those years.)

I had a cooperative and happy history with my old Windows XP computer, printing on an Epson 2880 with QTR. Because of Microsoft's decision to longer support XP, the computer was replaced with a Lenovo M93p (with intel quad-core i7-4770). I downloaded the latest version of QTR (version 2.7.2), and installed it. While it looks beautiful with a new skin, after either selecting a file or dragging a file into the print box and pressing the "print" tab, the latter becomes a "cancel" tab for about a minute, after which the image of the file disappears and the "print" tab returns. No printing is done (and nothing shows in the print queue).

I'm baffled. Anybody have similar experience or any ideas on how to get around this?

Thanks,
