problems setting up QTR

problems setting up QTR

2007-05-03 by nathancoe

I've recently been introduced to QTR after way to many huey Black and white prints. I must 
have spent all day yesterday trying to set it up on my Apple x v. 10.3.9 using an Epson 
2200 printer. I downloaded the software, set up profiles but cannot seem to get the QTR 
print interface in Photoshop cs2. -It's as if it was never installed although my printing 
options now give me the choice for Quad link on epson printer. Sorry but it's driving me 
mad. Any suggestions. I can't even find the file on my hard drive. Below is the info from 
my Diagnostic Script that Mr Harrington said I should include in his tutorial:

Re: [QuadtoneRIP] problems setting up QTR

2007-05-06 by Roy Harrington

Nate and Harry,

Looking at the diagnostic output I see a few things that you ought to 
check.

It appears you may have been using the firewire port in the past.  Make 
sure
this is unplugged -- don't have both USB and firewire ports plugged in 
at the
same time.

I think you've used the OSX Printer Setup Utility for setting up one of 
the Quad
printers.  Under some circumstances that's possible but the Install 
scripts still
must be used for the profiles.  In general it's usually the best to use 
the  install
scripts for the whole setup.  I'd delete the Quad2200-GQ printer and 
the extra
Stylus Photo 2200 printer first.

The "GQ" printer is for MediaStreet's QuadBlack inks, if this isn't the 
inks you
have loaded this isn't what you want.  I'll assume you have Epson's 
UltraChrome
inks in the printer.

If so just run from the download:
   Profiles/2100-2200-UC/Install2200

This will create a Quad2200 printer with the proper profiles.  Now in 
Photoshop
select Quad2200 and paper size in Page Setup, then in Print select 
Quad2200,
then the QuadToneRIP print dialog page.  This will have the 
Curves/Profiles
and other selections.   See Tutorial.pdf for more about the selections.

You won't find a QuadToneRIP program anywhere -- it's a driver that's in
system folders that are not as easily visible.

Let me know if you still need more info.

Roy
