Roy,

Ahh, now I see.  That makes sense.

I will try to reproduce the error again.  I am running an I7 with XP Pro, and the R1800 (as well as an old laserjet and an R800).  I stopped getting the error when I set the paper size to one of the standard sizes rather than the custom size of 8.5"x11".  I will try it again and see if I get the error again when I keep everything the same except for the custom size.  I will let you know how it works.

I must say that I am impressed with the whole thing.  I also tried using the R1800 (non-3MK) setting where it will only use the one MK channel.  It worked quit well. The ink did not adhere well to the 4x6 glossy paper I was using.  I suppose that GLOP is required on top?  Maybe I will try to do a profile for using the photo black instead of the matte black ink.  I want to try out making my own profiles and this will be an interesting test while I wait for the shipment of the 3MK materials to arrive from MIS.
