Digital BW, The Print

Hi Greg. 
I don't think it is in windows yet. The Gimp for windows is using the
epson drivers. I am using Ubuntu in a WUBI windows folder partition
and printing through the Gimp with it's Gutenprint plugin driver. It
has  mega controls but as yet they are not tied directly to instrument
measurements so are a bit sticky to learn how to use. I believe the
color management aspects are under development currently so it
shouldn't be too much longer before they are available too.

Regards
Duane
