Digital BW, The Print

Problem solved!

I got some very good help from Reinier on and off list. It turns out
there were three problems:

1. The Gimp overrides the quadtone settings and uses settings and
drivers of its own. I solved this by running lp directly from the
command line and also by using gtklp which is basically a graphical
interface for lp.

2. The variable CUPSBINARY had to be changed to /usr/lib/cups/filter in
several files.

3. I had to set read access on /usr/share/cups/quadtone/ and all its
contents - This was very important, as it would otherwise just ignore
the curve settings entirely.

I'm running my first tests now, and it looks very promising. I'm getting
the most dotless prints I've seen since I installed the Ultratones in my
2100. I'll report back when I've had a chance to do some more testing.
