Error Message when using Drop-Quad-Profile

Error Message when using Drop-Quad-Profile

2016-08-23 by jthacker@...


When using the "Drop-Quad-Profile" on a MAC (El Capitan), I get the following message:

"Could not find PPD file for Quad7890 at /etc/cups/ppd/Quad7890.ppd"


I don't know what a ppd file is, where can I find it or otherwise remedy the error? I update QTR to 2.7.7

Looks to me like you don't have a Quad7890 printer that your curve specifies.
Drop-Quad-Profile does not automatically create a printer like Install7890.command does.

So run the install script first. In fact I think the easiest is to always use install script.
