This happened to me not too long ago. The solution proposed by the people on
the list worked perfectly. You have to have the print rgb XT in the Quark
4-4.04 to send out rgb images. It's a free download at the Quark site. If
not, a very unusable rgb>cmyk conversion will happen then they will be
brought back into rgb in Distiller. With Quark 4.1 you won't need this
extension for printing the page to rgb. Keep in mind that Quark handles
Tiff's better on colour managed items as by nature EPS is left alone as the
colour tags are already written into the header.
