QTR-Quadtone RIP

Thanks Roy,

I'll try to work with Bonjour set up if I can figure it out. I might have to abandon using this printer with QTR on a network and move a mac or a pc close to the printer with usb.

The other problem I'm having that is more of a concern is that even using usb connection to the 9890 custom paper sizes are not working. When I make a custom paper size like say 22x32 or whatever, the printer prints out an aprox 5x7 size print somewhere on the sheet. It's really odd. The driver preview looks perfect.  I double checked and recreated another custom paper size and made sure all my settings were done correctly and three times it happened on a large sheet. 

I'm not sure where I'll go from here. Using standard paper sizes causes no problems just custom ones.

The good news is that Cone's K7 curves for the 9880 are working perfectly when loaded into the 9890 curve package with no need for any editing. They look great.
