Thank you for the instruction. But I still have problem. 

I use System Preference to add printer naming it Quad3880 (also tried Quad3880-UC), using QuadtoneRIP 2.7 Epson 3880 driver. Where do I set the extension Quad-3880?

But the install program gave the same error. The printer is USB connected.

Regards
Hisun
