Hello Andre, the K6 refers to the Piezography K6/7 inkset and the GQ is the Mediastreet 
Quad Black inkset.  You can also learn to profile any inkset you want although the task is a 
bit daunting at first.   The Windoze user has one set of instructions and the Mac user 
another, neither are easy to follow in the beginning but with time it can be done.  The RIP 
is a fantastic piece of software giving you infinite control over the ink.  One major problem 
with the R220 is that it is a hobbyist's  printer (albeit an excellant one) but rarely used by 
professionals who normally want a larger print size so there are relatively few profiles 
ready made as there are for the larger printers. 

One bit of advice is to go through all of the file folders one at a time.  There are many 
"readme" documents that can fill in many of the blanks left by the various tutorials and 
instruction sheets.  From your name I'm assuming English is a second or third language 
and that might also make  QTR a bit more difficult to access.  QTR is however a very 
popular program and you might also find help in French.

Good luck!  Robert
