Re: [QuadtoneRIP] Printer connections

Hi  John,

It looks like I missed this question first time around.

Yes, QTR does work with network printers.
There are actually 3 different ways and both Mac and PC it's really an 
issue
for the basic print system of your OS.  QTR uses what's available.

So these are the ways:
1)  An Epson Pro printer can be connected directly to the ethernet 
using the
optional ethernet card.  With the printer has an IP number that must be 
used in the
setup.  With a Mac you use e.g. the Install7600ipp script rather than 
Install7600.
On the PC, you use the connection that was setup for the Epson driver.

2) There are shared printers where machines are connected by ethernet 
or wireless.
The USB printer on another computer can be accessed.  On the Mac you 
have to enable
shared printers in Sharing Preferences. On the PC you'll use Windows 
Printer Sharing.

3) Finally on the Mac there is a USB port of the wireless Airport.  You 
can use what's
called Rendezvous on 10.3 or Bonjour on 10.4.  See instructions in the 
Tutorial.pdf
of the latest version.
