QTR-Quadtone RIP

I use the same process to print from Lightroom on the Mac.

It works fine. I can see very, very minor differences between a file  
printed via Photoshop and via Lightroom. (After 5 minutes looking at  
two prints as close to my face as my eyes could focus, I noticed a  
that tones between 98-100% separated slightly differently, but this is  
only evident when comparing output of identical files and there is not  
enough difference to worry about. (And I am very picky.)

I now use photoshop to print work proofs, then final images are  
"cropped" to the necessary size and printed via Lightroom. This has  
really improved the printing experience. I either print an image to a  
print template in LR, or I make a virtual copy to a specific crop  
dimension and print from there.
