Profiles not showing up...
2007-12-27 by milneco2000
Hi- I have an Epson R300 and purchased Piezography K6 inks for them a few weeks ago, and just got around to installing them. I think I got the last inkset EVER, since when I went back to the site a few hours later they weren't there. My problem is that I can't seem to get the correct profiles to show up in the QTR dialog box. The only profiles available are those that start with the letters "GQ," I assume this is a type of paper. I'm trying to print on enhanced matte, which I guess now is called archival matte. This is a pretty basic question I'm sure. I've searched the forum a few times and couldn't find anything relevant to this. I think it might be a problem with how I installed QTR. I made a file, "R300" on my disk, and proceeded to drag ALL of the profiles in, followed by the R300 install script, as explained in the tutorial. At this point I could only see the GQ profiles. After this didn't work I deleted the "R300" file on my disk and made a new one. I then dragged only the profile folder called "R200-R300-K6" into it and ran the install script. No profiles were available at all. I deleted that and made a new one, and then dragged all the profiles into it along with the "InstallR300-K6.command" file I found inside the R200-R300-K6 profile folder just for kicks. That of course didn't work either. At the time I had this problem I was running Mac OSX panther and printing out of Photoshop Elements 3. Since then (in the last 24 hours ) I have upgraded to CS3 and Leopard... I couldn't figure out why CS3 wasn't installing, and then realized I was rolling on panther which of course does not support CS3. Thanks for any help. -Alex
