Re: ImageNest (works with QTR) now at InkjetMall

Carl,

I'm not getting that result with a tagged image either. I am able to
print and the results are indicative of the preview. So one of us or
the other has a bug! I hope its you and not me, because I like this
feature! 

Do you have the latest version? You can check or uncheck "Use embedded
ICC profile."  Also, correct use is "Printer Manages Colors" rather
than "ImageNest Manages Colors." The idea being letting ImageNest hand
off the job (with different input profile) to QTR.
