QTR-Quadtone RIP

Mike,
Thanks for sharing your experiences !  I did try what Roy suggested  
and it is now working fine with my 4800.  I took a basic workshop in  
b&w printing with Larry Danque at Cone workshop.  I am trying to  
follow up with some of the instruction in printing my work and it  
seems to be going fine so far although I get confused at times.  I did  
some color printiing prior to setting up the K7 sepia inks from Cone  
and things went fine with that.
