QTR-Quadtone RIP

The standard ICC softproofing does not have any notion of blending
sliders.  So there's
basically no way to "preview" the blending sliders.  (also these are
part of the driver not
something visible to Photoshop).

So you need to  make several small test prints to see the tones and
pick what you like.
In general I spend some time deciding the slider values I like, then
save them in a Preset
so I can use them over and over again.
