QTR-Quadtone RIP

Many Thanks, Roy

That did the trick.  Wonder what was up with that?  I did manage to get the software to 
work right out of the gate earlier today on my laptop, so something must be wacky with 
the OS on my G5 tower (I'd also tried to run the printer via the CUPS IP interface, but was 
getting communication errors).  But all is well for now.

Happy New Year

Alan
