QTR-Quadtone RIP

I got it the mac has a pretty good setup once I figured it out, it does all if you just put in the correct IP ... and I had some basic confusion on the IP. I will write this up for a beginner to use and post it ... hopefully it will help.

My office is very small ... so if at all possible I would like to use ethernet to get to my printers in the next room.  When I tried to use QTR I found no Ethernet option.  And have since noted it is set up for USB.  Is it possible to use ethernet??

I updated everything for this project. My old mac died and my old photoshop was the first CS.
