QTR-Quadtone RIP

Hi Scott.
I believe that if you are using a profiled monitor and color
management, what you are seeing is normal. Try taking copys of your
file and converting them to several different output profiles. You
should see the same thing in each case. All that you see on screen is
based on your monitor's profile.

Regards
Duane
