QTR-Quadtone RIP

I just installed QTR 2.4.2 on my Win XP computer and right off the bat 
am having a problem printing to my 9800 w/ matte black installed.  QTR 
is set for QUAD9800 and the correct printer is selected in the printer 
list.  The printer itself keeps coming up with the message,"mismatch 
error-make sure that the ink cart and drivcr settings match".  I've 
checked and they do, but QTR might be thinking that photo black is 
installed and the printer won't print.  I've reinstalled QTR, checked 
QTR settings for paper type, curve UCmk-EpsEnhmatte-warm, but the 
problem persists.  What am I missing or what else do I need to do?

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

This sounds suspiciously like a conflict with a 4000 printer.   Do you have a 4000
printer?  Could you be using a Preset made while Quad4000 was selected?
Double check to make sure you don't have Quad4000 somewhere.

If you still get the error, find the QTRgui.ini and QTRLog.txt files.   They used to be
in \\Program Files\QuadToneRIP and the subfolder bin.   With 2.4.2 they should be
in <user>\Application Data\QuadToneRIP.   Find them and email them and tell me
which place you found them.

Roy,

After uninstalling QTR 2.4.2 and removing the Quadtone folder from 
<user>\Application Data\QuadToneRIP, I installed QTR 2.3.3 and got 
that version to work!  Now to tweak the curves .....

But I don't know where QTRgui.ini and QTRLog.txt are - they don't 
show up anywhere on my hard drive - even after a file search ....but 
QTR 2.3.3 works now.

Well, that's interesting -- and also a very good hint.

Thanks,

The logs for that version should be in the program files folder. Or you could
just install the gui for 2.4.2 from
http://www.sbillard.org/Shareware/QTRgui.htmwhich will put the logs, etc in the
application data folder. That gui is compatible with the other 2.3.3 programs.

Roy,

After uninstalling QTR 2.4.2 and removing the Quadtone folder from
<user>\Application Data\QuadToneRIP, I installed QTR 2.3.3 and got that version
to work!  Now to tweak the curves .....

But I don't know where QTRgui.ini and QTRLog.txt are - they don't show up
anywhere on my hard drive - even after a file search ....but QTR 2.3.3 works
now.
