New Member: QTR Help...

2005-11-21 by cteditions

Hi all,

I am new to the forum as well as QTR.  I am running OSX 10.4.2 (Tiger) and using an 
Epson R2400 printer.  I have downloaded the QTR program and installed it.  I now have 
QTR folder on my desktop with all or the documentation as well as the Printer Profiles 
folder, Curves folder, etc.

In reading over all of the documentation I could find for OSX I found that I needed to 
download the newest GIMP-Print.  I have downloaded and installed GIMP-Print 4.2.  The 
problem is that I DO NOT see a Gimp Driver for my printer (Epson 2400).

I go to Printer Setup Utility and click ADD.  Then I "Option-Click" the MORE PRINTERS 
choice and I get the "Advanced" dialog that the instructions discuss.  My Printer "Stylus 
Photo R2400" is listed under DEVICE so I choose it.  The URL is filled it for me and then I 
choose Epson in the Printer Model pull-down menu.  NEXT IS THE PROBLEM...

In the "Name" dialog box that pops up I DO NOT see a GIMP-Print driver for my Epson.  I 
see Stylus Color models up to 3000, Stylus Photo models up to 2200 & EX, and Stylus 
Photo R200-R800, BUT NO R2400...

Please help, do I need to install the QTR printer drivers first?  I have NOT installed ANY 
QTR item other than the program itself.  It says in the QTR instructions that I should 
alrealdy have my printer chosen in Printer Setup Utility before proceeding but I don't see 
the driver.  Am I suppose to be looking for a QTR driver?

Much appreciation,

Cody Thomas
