QTR-Quadtone RIP

I'm running QTR on a MacBook Pro running OS X 10.4. I've been happily
printing since I originally installed the software a few months ago without
any issues.

I started building some new profiles today. I created a curve, started PS
CS3, and then made a couple of test prints. Everything was fine. I created
another new curve, restarted PS CS3, and now the QTR settings scree in the
final Print dialog box is missing. All I get are the following:

Copies & Pages
Layout
Scheduler
Paper Handling
ColorSync
Cover Page
Summary

The printer selected is Quad2200-K7.

The strange thing is that sometimes when I go to select the paper size in
the Page Setup screen, all I can choose in Paper Size is "Item1". This only
seems to happen when Quad2200-K7 shows beside "Format for:" (vs one of my
other printers). If I say OK to this, PS CS3 will crash.

I have done a complete power down, reinstalled QTR, reinstalled the latest
QTR and reinstalled the Quad2200-K7 printer.

Please help!

Terry.

Problem solved. 

Some curve names were too long. That was the root issue. This was compounded
by the uninstall program not running correctly, which was caused by a queue
issue.

Hello all, 
  Newbie to digital black and white using QTR. I have been printing black only with consumer printers for several years and never new I was using a technique that has a name, BO Printing. It only made sense to me to use black only when printing black and white after I saw my first black and white print come out with a tint to it. Prior to digital I did photogrpahy since 1968 with black and white film, my own development and printing. Opened up a wedding and portrait studio, did custom black and white for "art" photographers, (nudes) then one day spent 26 hours in the dark room printing up about 700 5x7's for a local business taking only Marlboro and hot dog and Yoo Hoo breaks. I never went into a darkroom again and never smoked a Marlboro again. I guess that day I treated my lungs like rental units. That was 1978. Went with color, and stayed with color until I went digital about five years ago. I sell about fifty prints a year and hope to sell more when I retire. If not,
 who cares. Anyway, just an intro being most groups like to know who they are emailing with. I live in NJ.
   
  I am happy  to be back to my first love ,black and white photography. I will leave color for my flower macros and my dye ink prints that  I work with water and pencils.  
   
  My question is, finally...I just learned how to install and use profiles this weekend and now want to know how to move the profile for the Epson DoubleSided Matte Paper into the QTR. I have it stashed in Windows/System32/Spool/Color, or close to that. I use that paper  for my practice prints to proof contrast , tonal range and or color. I have no clue as how to move them around and don't want to experiment because it took hours of  reading and askng questions and alot of help from others and I don't want to mess it up. . Any help will be appreciated. 
  thanks
  Frank in NJ
