Re: [QuadtoneRIP] Help please - is Mac QTR different

2006-12-14 by Roy Harrington

Paul,

The password needed is your admin password for installations.   This is 
a Mac OS X
thing not QTR.   The Mac version is a bit different in that it's not a 
separate program.
It's just part of the OS X print system.   You'll need to run 
Install-QTR-2.4.3.pkg and
then one of the install scripts for the printer/ink you are using.   
For instance:   Profiles/2100-2200-UC/Install2100
Once you do this there's a Quad2100 printer and you just print to it.  
The familiar
options will be available in the QuadToneRIP print dialog page.
