How to setup QUADTONE RIP on a EPSON Stylus Photo 1500W

QW

I have used the installation procedure for the Epson 1400 to set up my 1500w.  You need to set up your printer by naming it QUAD1400 and using the QTR printer driver for the 1400.

I have done this using an Apple Mac with the OSX10.8.2 operating system.  I'm not familiar with setting up with a Windows system.

Which type of Operating system are you using, Apple or Windows?

If the printer is in proper location,ie "
Printers and Devices" it will be recognized. I've 2 i400's and have no confusion between which driver for QTR qnd which is for Epson driver.Hope your problem gets resolved.

How to setup QUADTONE RIP on a EPSON Stylus Photo 1500W

2017-01-07 by fvgnqpagyn4tgcyujc6r77gsiwghbsccdv57u7vw@...

Hi


I can't find a profile for the Epson 1500W. I tried renaming my printer QUAD1400 as suggested in another thread, but this doesn't work.


I want to use QTR in conjunction with PiezoDN inks and am using a Macwith El Capitan.


Any suggestions welcomed.

Hi fvgnqpagyn4tgcyujc6r77gsiwghbsccdv57u7vw,

I don't recall exactly how to do the renaming, but it does work if you do it correctly. If/when I can find it, I'll post the instructions. Hopefully, someone else who has done it will jump in before that. 

Do you already have PiezoDN? If so, are you aware there is a private forum for PiezoDN users? Response time is usually very fast.

Cheers,
Keith

PS - It's kind of a good idea in forums like this to sign your posts, especially if you are using a random email name. ;)

Hi again,

Found what I was looking for:

Change Install1430-PiezoDN=1400.command to Install1500-PiezoDN=1400.command

Is this what you tried?

Cheers again,
Keith

Thank you I tried changing the name as suggested but just get

ALERT! **** Printer Description File (PPD) not found for printer 1500


First try re-installing QTR via the Install-QTR-###.pkg file


thanks.

The most recent version of PiezoDN (1.3) has this already set up. Look at the curve  folder called "xxx-NON-US PRINTERS” and you’ll see your 1500W in there. I also added this to the download change-log for PiezoDN on the download page.

This will not work with the install pkg yet. That is build for the 1430.

Simply install the old way by going to  Curves > xxx-NON-US PRINTERS > 1500 > and installing with the command.

Also, you have access to your private forum at http://piezography.com/forum/piezodn/ <http://piezography.com/forum/piezodn/> where this has already been discussed.

Hi Charles,

From your comments on the PiezoDN forum it appears that my suggestion did work. I know it has worked for other 1500W users. Just so that we do not leave other folks following or finding this thread with a false impression, would you mind clarifying here what worked for you.

Thanks,
Keith
