• CQscan is a “server” program. It controls the scanner and it scans and sepa-
rates the jobs you send to the scanner from your work station. A separate
copy of CQscan is needed for each scanner in your system.
• CQtiff is similar to CQscan , but is used for correcting and separating already
scanned TIFF files.
• When you start up either of these two modules, the corresponding CQscan
or CQtiff window will appear.

• CQ is a “client” program that runs on your work station. It is the interface
that lets you prepare jobs for scanning and/or separation.
• When you start up CQ , the Jobs window and Connections window will
appear.
• If you are running your scanner directly from the same computer as the Col-
orQuartet interface, CQscan should automatically start up and connect itself
to the scanner when you start up CQ .
