QuadToneRIP version 2.8.2 and 2.8.2 Release Notes

  This is a bug fix for version 2.8.1 or 2.8.1.1 -- all users with either should upgrade.

  The release also includes new versions of Print-Tool and Data-Tool

  The macOS release 2.8.2 is compatible with many OS versions
  from Mac OSX 10.12 High Sierra through macOS 13.2 Ventura
  The Windows release 2.8.2 is now out too.
    
  Apple Mac Installation satisfies all the newest CodeSigning and Notarizing for Apple Products.
  
  The main feature of this release is full support of the new Epson P700 and P900
  printers.  The matte black and violet inks are added to fully support the 10 ink printers.
  Both Macs and PCs can use the inks:  K, C, M, Y, LC, LM, LK, LLK, V, MK
  V is violet, MK is matte black and K remains as photo black.

  Calibration Mode will printout the V and MK with the 10-ink separation file even
  though it's labeled Orange and Green.

  !! --- Windows Caveat --- PC users must read !!

  The PC front end QTRgui unfortunately cannot support 10 inks.  So due to the
  importance of MK ink I've decided to simulate the switching of blank inks as has
  been done for many previous Epson printers.  The violet ink is not supported with this.

  To accomplish this I've created to additional printers named P708 and P908 that
  are usable as 8 ink printers. They will use the Black Ink selection in printing to
  give you matte of photo ink.  So inks are:  K, C, M, Y, LC, LM, LK, LLK
  Note that K represents either Photo or Matte black ink depending on the printing dialog,
  just like it's always been before.
  

  Important:
  This has several side effects that one needs to be aware of. The .quad and .qidf files
  are mostly the same but incompatible for using matte black ink.

  This is the general idea:
  Use QuadP700 and QuadP900 if you have 10 ink curves made somewhere else i.e. on a Mac,
  Piezo, Boutwell.  You can't use QTRgui on these.

  Use QuadP708 and QuadP908 if you want to Create curves/profiles yourself using QTRgui.
  It's all similar to what you might have done with previous printers
