QTR-Quadtone RIP

Has anyone seen this?

When I try to install some curves you sent I get the following message in Terminal:

command ; exit;

*********************************************************************

Cannot find an Epson USB printer with the name 4900

The printer must be turned on, plugged in to computer and ready
Resetting the printer may be necessary.

The firewire port cannot be used for QuadToneRIP.  If you are already using
firewire you must switch over to USB.  Do not plug in both USB and firewire.

For network printers, please enter an IPP address for your printer.
The address is a 4 part number such as 192.38.103.34
Enter IPP number or <return> to cancel:  192.168.2.107
Creating printer named: Quad4900

Installing QuadToneRIP Curves Printer Quad4900
   Curve 4900-CAR-SEL-Master
Could not find valid inks "bookmark88?p???A?o" in quad file
logout

[Process completed]


After doing this I get The Quad4900 printer in Photoshop but no curves.

I am running Photoshop CS 5.1 on a MacBook Retina with OS 10.7.4 connecting to the printer via ethernet.

thanks,

cort

Hi Cort,

There's something wrong with the curve that you are installing.
I don't know where it came from or how it was made.  But if you
look at a .quad curve file in TextEdit you'll see that the first line should
have a list of the inks being used in the curve.  This is apparently not there.

Thanks, I think there was a problem with having the proper ink names.
