QuadToneRIP version 2.7.2 Release Notes This is a Mac Only release as this time -- Windows is coming later. This is a preliminary release for Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard through 10.7 Lion It also has preliminary support for many new Epson printers. Included are R3000, x890, and x900 families. There are no profiles yet for the new printers but the software allows experimentation with them. Support for all 10 inks on the x900 printers is available. The new inks are GR = Green and OR = Orange. Simply install this new version over existing versions. It may require you to Delete old Quad printers using System Preferences > Print&Fax Printers should be recreated using the Install scripts in QuadToneRIP/Profiles Please report any trouble especially with OS X Lion. A major change in Lion is that it does not run PPC (PowerPC) programs any more. All the QTR programs have been updated but the X-Rite program MeasureTool which has been the recommended tool for Eye-One spectrophotometer users is PPC only and is not being updated. Other possibilities are in the works but keeping a version of Snow Leopard on an external bootable drive may be a good idea if you've been using MeasureTool.
