The only thing that comes up is a screen in which to pick paper size, tray(or manual feed, etc).I can go into PS(CS4 in this case), but I do not have access to the page setup unless I call up an image and then the settings chosen will be for that image, not the target.

All of the settings in the printer driver are available when you're printing targets from
within Spyder3Print.

I know what the problem is! And it's very simple. You're simply NOT clicking to continue
to the next dialog.....!!!!

In Spyder3Print 4.x: you always get the Page Setup dialog first; THEN you have to continue
before you'll get the next dialog, which is the general OSX print dialog that will have
all of the other choices you need.

(The problem is: you're expecting all of this to come up in one dialog, when in fact, you
will get 2 dialogs in succession, one after the other)
