 III) MAJOR CHANGES FROM PREVIOUS RELEASES
 
+* Changes from 5.2.6
+
+  1) New printers supported in this release:
+
+     Note that support for all printers marked "EXPERIMENTAL"
+     (untested) or "PRELIMINARY" (minimally tested but untuned) is
+     subject to change without notice.  Printers not marked
+     "EXPERIMENTAL" generally will not change between releases, but
+     notice will be given and if possible back compatibility will be
+     provided.

+
+  2) Corrected color matching profile used for Mac OS X 10.5.x.
+     sRGB will now be used instead of Generic RGB.  Users with work-
+     flows dependant on the previously used Generic RGB can select
+     this color profile in the print window by using ColorSync to
+     choose the profile rather than using VendorMatching.
+
+  3) Add additional photo modes to Canon inkjet printers.
+
+  4) Correct page size limit for EPSON Stylus Pro 7600, 7800, 7880,
+     9600, 9800, and 9880 (previously these printers had overly
+     restrictive page limits).
+
+  5) Correct printing to the EPSON Stylus NX200, NX215, SX200, SX205,
+     SX210, and SX215.
+
+  6) Corrected basic printer definitions of EPSON Stylus Pro 3800,
+     3880, 7800, and 9800.
+
+  7) Corrected media definitions and improve printing quality for
+     EPSON Stylus Pro 3800, 3880, 4800, 4880, 7800, 7880, 9800, 9880,
+     11800, and 11880.  This will result in substantial changes in
+     output; if this is an issue, please use the EPSON Stylus Pro 7600
+     or 9600 driver as appropriate.  There are new printer definitions
+     named "EPSON Stylus Pro 4800/4880 Back Compatible" and "EPSON
+     Stylus Pro 11800/11880 Back Compatible" available for people with
+     existing tuned workflows for those printers.
+
+     There are no back compatibility modes for the EPSON Stylus Pro
+     3800 and 3880 as those printers were previously marked
+     experimental with a note that their output was expected to change
+     substantially.
+
+  8) Allow EPSON Stylus Pro 3800 and 3880 to select matte and photo
+     black ink automatically based on ink set choice (it is no longer
+     necessary to set this on the front panel).
+
+  9) Corrected base density for Photo Paper on printers using Claria
+     ink (use 20% less ink).  The default results in heavy ink
+     puddling in some cases.
+
+ 10) Improved reliability of escputil.
+
+ 11) CUPS PPD files now correctly identify which options affect
+     color, for the Common Printer Dialog.
+
+ 12) A problem whereby certain malformed PPD files would cause the
+     PostScript driver to crash has been fixed.  In addition, the
+     PostScript driver now runs considerably faster.
+
+ 13) A build problem on Solaris has been fixed.
+
+ 14) A problem whereby an attempt to use the the optional ink map
+     curves (e. g. Cyan Hue Map) with the EPSON Stylus Photo R800,
+     R1800, and R1900 would cause an error has been fixed.
+
+ 15) The Dutch and Italian translations have been updated.
+
+ 16) A Slovenian translation has been added.
