Re: QTR Version 2.6 Fails to Print

I reinstalled version 2.5 and tried to print on my Mac (10.4) and 
Epson R1800 3MK system and it works like magic, same as before.  I've 
tried everything I could think of to get v 2.6 to print but have come 
up empty.  I assume there are no improvements that I would notice on 
the 1800 3MK system from v 2.5 to 2.6, is that true?  If so I'll just 
keep using 2.5 and try my curve generation process from there.  Dont 
know if you learned anything from the diagnostic file I sent you.
Regards
Paul
