RE: [QuadtoneRIP] Trying Quadtone RIP: troubleshooting why no image appears

It sounds like a TIFF format that QTR does not support. Sounds like the RGB
might be interleaved. You can try saving the file and checking the settings.

Subject: [QuadtoneRIP] Trying Quadtone RIP: troubleshooting why no image appears

I tried Quadtone RIP in the past but didn't continuing using it. I just
installed 2.5.0.1 and tried printing from Photoshop CS3 to an Epson 2200. My
system is a Pentium 4, WinXP.

I was printing this morning direct to Epson, and was getting that typical
bluish-green cast, so I decided to give QTR another try.

Quadtone prints, but no image shows up.

I tried a file I had just printed direct to Epson. It's a 16 bit TIFF with color
removed but still RGB.  My print is a very neutral gray, but there is no image.
It just looks like one huge bar code--just vertical gray stripes.

I tried the same file as 8 bit, grayscale, and used a different curve.
All I got was a complete, solid black.

In the QTRgui window, the image shows up normally in the little preview window.

I didn't find a mention of this in the older messages in this group, or in the
troubleshooting area of the help files.
