QTR-Quadtone RIP

Works for me without the dongle (win7 64bit). But the order of actions is bizarre. Here are my notes on how to do it:

• Open MeasureTool
• Select "Configuring"
• Specify "reflection" (for measuring paper) and leave Spectral toggles unchecked (this exports as LAB values) 
• Specify your measurement device. 
• Close the Configuring window
• Select "Measuring"
• Select the chart you printed 
• Follow the instructions to measure the chart
• Getting the speed of strip mode right is a bit finicky, but still better than patch mode.

Hope something in there solves your problem,
