PrintFIX PRO works very well with QTR and Bowhaus' IJC/OPM B+W rip <http://
www.bowhaus.com/services/IJCOPMblend.php4>

I've been a long time QTR user but at times was kinda dead-in-the-water with no way to 
tweak QTR curves accurately. I could come close by manually changing values in the text files 
and printing and evaluating a gray scale but it was a long hit or miss process.

Today I print B+W with an Epson 4800 with the Advanced Black and White driver. Been using 
Roy's "QTR-Create-ICC" for soft proofing and printing. 

I have  also have been using Bowhaus' rip and will say it's a most elegant and well thought 
out rip. It's like QuadToneRip with an interface...but much, much more than that. It's very 
powerful and user friendly. If you can swing the $250.00 price tag it's well worth it and a 
bargain.
