Yes--I see that it is unclear.  And--since I couldn't bring up 
anything in my search (and obviously have missed some crucial 
discussions) I just was totally unclear myself about people wanting 
to print from Qimage or PS as opposed to QTRgui, which I've always 
used.    Now I see that the Mac folks are able to use QTR somewhat 
differently.  (I have to admit I've never read the Mac directions on 
Roy's page).

Toning---I should have been more clear on this--its in reference to 
blending the profiles, i.e., cool/warm from 100% to say 20%--that I 
meant for toning.  I'm not even sure that this statement is clear 
LOL.  However--at this point, it doesn't matter since I see that 
QTRgui is the way I should print using QTR.  I have used Qimage for 
quite a few years--and sometimes have used it with print to file for 
interpolation for a large (36 x 24)file to be printed by a graphics 
lab.  I took it back to PS for conversion to the proper CMYK 
profile.  Never thought of doing this for QTR however--that is a good 
tip--thanks.  

I believe I also questioned whether those printing with the Epson 
2400 found QTR to still be better overall for mono prints as opposed 
to using the Epson driver for mono prints (even toned).  I've 
received some good answers on other forums---which more or less lead 
me to consider that sticking with my 2200 and QTR may be the way to 
go for at least awhile.  

I'm still not receiving emails and don't quite know what else to do.  
I've never had problems in being able to sub to this or any other 
group.  I tried the normal way of editing my membership---and by 
using the method of 'subbing' with the address shown below in the 
home page of QTR group.  If anyone else can give me any hints as to 
how to be able to get daily emails to this group, I would appreciate 
it.

Thanks for the replies---they helped me understand that the way I've 
been printing from QTR is really the only with using Win.

Diane
