QTR-Quadtone RIP

Roy will have to answer this one. He is the author of the printing engine. I
just did the GUI for Windows. I am really ignorant about most of QTR.

Hi Stephen

I have raised a question related to this topic a couple of days ago but have not
received any response from this forum.

The challenge I am facing is that I am using my Epson Pro 7600 (24") and want to
print out A2 images horizontally in roll sheet mode. 
Epson driver allows me to do so from PS CS2 with the auto rotating function,
which really rotates the image on the final print. Is there such an option in
Quadtone, or something like that foreseen in the near future?
Further, I would like to print borderless. Do you intend to implement this too?

I am a Window user.

Thanks a lot.
Thai
