QTR-Quadtone RIP

Hi Johnny,

We made some changes to cut down on duplicate ppd files but it looks
like one situation was missed.   There's an easy work around for it 
until
a fix is done.

Go into in \Program Files\QuadToneRIP\PPD\  folder.
There are a bunch of ppd files.   Open Quad1280.ppd in Notepad and then 
do a
Save As:  Quad1280-UT2.ppd  -- i.e. just duplicate it with a new name.

You should now be able to do everything as before.
