Right. I suspect that Roy forgot to clear out the printer name before he set the
files for distribution. The same source is used for the 2100 and 2200 (they are
really the same printer.) If the name is empty in the QIDF file, then the curve
creator fills it in from the printing model selected. If it is not empty, then
the printing model gets set to the name found.

Once you save a QIDF file from the curve creator, it will have the name filled
in from the printing model.

Stephen,

So you mean the QIDF files opened in Notepad shouldn't
have a printer designation at the top?  The ones I
have in the 2200-ut7 folder say 2100 with the
exception of the Ilford Smooth Pearl curves which say
2200.  These are the curves that downloaded with QTR.
