RE: [Digital BW] QUAD2-RIP

2003-08-22 by Roger L Sopher

Hi Reinier,

Using webmin I got the proper ppd associated with my quad defined printer. I
can indeed see it from QTCups and perform any of the adjustments needed or
for that matter from cupsadmin using a browser. Since I can't print directly
from gimp, what photo editing software do you suggest that can print to one
of the three packages you mentioned. I tried hitting print on QTCups but all
I got was an error message that its queue was empty and I could not find
anything that appears to allow direct loading of a file to print.

At this point I think I am inches from being able to print using the QTR2
drivers. Next will be to work out the curve generating part of the package.

Thanks,

Roger

  Hi Roger

  The GIMP (1.2.3) prints only with the standard Gimp-print defined
printers.
  The plugin in The GIMP does not see Roy's QTR printers.
  gtklp, xpp and qtcups all three sees the printers you have defined for
QTR.
  So whichever photo editing s/w you use, save the image somewhwere, open up
  one of the three mentioned printer "drivers" and you will see all the QTR
  options. It also allows you to print straight from linux.

  The print plug-in that The GIMP uses does not allow the QTR options.

  As I said previously, I use Debian but I am sure that all three the
programs
  I mentioned will be available for RH, SuSE and BSD.
