Re: [QuadtoneRIP] Re: QTR and Epson 1160 problem still present

John,
Its not file specific:
as I said in another answer, the same file printed fine from QTR on
Linux in b9 days and failed on the first PC version, as did all sorts
of tests on various width fine lines in shades of dark grey to black,
so if you don't see it on simple tests with fine lines on an R200,
then that printer doesn't have the problem.

Roy,
I've checked the alignment and its fine. 

thanks for the responses,
mike
