RE: [QuadtoneRIP] Media type selection in QTR

I believe the Paper Type selector is a holdover from Gimp print that is not
used in QuadtoneRIP. That is not to say that its use necessarily has no
effect. However, the convention is to leave the media type set to Matte
paper regardless of the actual paper type intended for the Curve.
