+I) GENERAL REQUIREMENTS
+
+Gutenprint will run on any reasonably modern computer running Linux,
+Macintosh OS X (10.2 or above), Solaris, or any other UNIX-like
+operating system. If you plan to compile this package from source,
+you will also need an ANSI C compiler, such as gcc (recommended). A
+compiler is not required if you are installing a pre-compiled package.
+
+Processor and memory requirements vary depending upon the printer and
+runtime options selected; it is suggested that you have at least 64 MB
+of memory for general purpose printing, 256 MB or more for high
+quality printing on a good printer, and 1 GB or more for large format
+printing at high resolution. You should have at least 50 MB of free
+disk space to compile and install Gutenprint. Disk space requirements
+for printing will vary depending upon how you use Gutenprint, but are
+generally modest except as noted below. We recommend a processor
+speed of at least 300 MHz. Fast printers may require a faster
+processor to achieve maximum printing speed.
+
+For general use, you should have the Common UNIX Printing System, CUPS
+(version 1.1.15 or above) or Foomatic (2.0 or above) installed.
+Please the rest of the release notes, in particular the Exceptions and
+Workarounds, for full details on installation, as there is important
+information to be aware of. CUPS is the printing system used on
+Macintosh OS X 10.2 and above, and many other systems use it. The
+combination of CUPS and Gutenprint provides a flexible, general
+purpose printing system capable of producing the highest quality
+output with any of the printers supported by this package. We
+strongly recommend using CUPS with Gutenprint as a general-purpose
+printing solution.
The Print plug-in for the GIMP requires either the GIMP 2.0 or above,
-or 1.2.3 or above on the 1.2 line (1.2.5 is recommended), or the GIMP
-2.0 or above. You may need to install packages named "gimp-devel",
-"gtk-devel", and "glib-devel" (or similar equivalents) on many
-systems. For GIMP 2.0, you may need to install "gimp2-devel",
-"gtk2-devel", "glib2-devel", and possibly other packages as well.
-This plug-in will work with any printing system, and offers a
-comprehensive user interface to control all aspects of the printing
-process.
+or 1.2.3 or above on the 1.2 line (1.2.5 is recommended). This

+user interface to control all aspects of the printing process. If you
+are printing photographs in large format from the GIMP at very high
+resolution, disk space requirements may be substantial, and we
+recommend at least 2 GB of free disk space for that purpose.
The Ghostscript driver requires GNU Ghostscript 6.53 or higher, ESP

================================================================
-* Major changes between Gutenprint 5.0.0 release candidate 1 and
- Gutenprint 5.0.0 release candidate 2:
+II) MAJOR CHANGES FROM PREVIOUS RELEASES
+
+A) MAJOR CHANGES BETWEEN GUTENPRINT 5.0.0 RELEASE CANDIDATE 2 AND
+ GUTENPRINT 5.0.0 RELEASE CANDIDATE 3:
+
+ 1) The package now offers explicit support for many more printers.
+ All printers supported by Gutenprint are now listed explicitly
+ rather than via the compatibility list. As a result, CUPS PPD
+ files and Foomatic are now generated for each supported printer.
+
+ 2) CUPS and Foomatic/IJS now produce correctly dimensioned and
+ positioned output. Previous pre-releases of Gutenprint 5.0
+ produced incorrectly dimensioned and/or positioned (offset from
+ the correct position) output in certain cases. This happened in
+ the following circumstances:
+
+ a) When a printer capable of optional full-bleed or borderless
+ operation was used in full-bleed/borderless mode, the output
+ was stretched to fit the expanded dimensions. The result was
+ that lines of specified lengths were printed slightly longer
+ than desired, and since the vertical and horizontal stretching
+ was normally not identical, the output was distorted slightly.
+
+ b) When printing directly to a CD, the output was shrunk
+ horizontally and/or positioned incorrectly by a small amount
+ (typically a few mm).
+
+ c) Depending upon the application doing the printing and the
+ printer selected, the output was shifted down and to the right
+ by several mm.
+
+ The PPD files and driver have been modified to specify zero
+ borders in all cases when a printer with borderless capability is
+ used. If normal (non-borderless) mode is selected, the border is
+ simply not printed, leaving correct dimensions for everything
+ within the imageable area. However, as a result of this, the
+ driver no longer prints true full bleed (overprinting the edge of
+ the page). The margins are set to zero, and typically there will
+ be very narrow unprinted margins (less than 1 mm) on one or more
+ sides.
+
+ Printing to CD's works correctly whether or not full bleed mode
+ is selected.
+
+ This change has no effect in the GIMP plugin and in other
+ applications which directly use Gutenprint, as there was never
+ any problem in those contexts.
+
+ 3) The IJS driver now correctly ejects the last page of a job.
+ Previously it did not always eject the last page with certain
+ Epson printers.
+
+ 4) The Epson Stylus Photo R800, R1800, R2400, and related printers
+ should now print at full speed in all cases. Previously these
+ printers were extremely slow (about 10 times slower than normal)
+ in many cases.
+
+ Related to this, the list of resolutions offered for these
+ printers are slightly different from before. Resolutions above
+ 2880x1440 DPI are no longer offered; instead, resolutions of
+ 2880x1440 high quality and 2880x1440 highest quality are offered.
+ These resolutions use extra passes of the print head to reduce
+ banding. In addition, these resolutions are actually 1440 DPI
+ horizontally and 2880 DPI vertically.
+
+ 5) The HP DeskJet 690 and other supported PCL printers capable of
+ 6-color photo printing (such as the Apollo P-2100 and Apple Color
+ StyleWriter 4500) no longer result in the driver crashing if
+ black and white output mode was selected. Also, Canon printers
+ capable of 6 or 7 color photo printing no longer result in a
+ crash if black and white output mode is selected.
+
+ 6) Canon and Lexmark inkjet printers now print if color output mode
+ is selected with a black and white cartridge installed.
+ Previously this was not possible in the GIMP plugin; the CUPS and
+ Foomatic drivers permitted this to be set, but gave a runtime
+ error when a job with these settings was printed. These printers
+ now accept the job and simply print it in black and white.
+
+ 7) The cleaning and nozzle check functions of escputil now work
+ properly on most printers, and escputil no longer crashes if you
+ type ctrl-D to a command prompt. In addition, the status printed
+ via the status command is now much more readable.
+
+ 8) The color quality for the Epson R300, R800, R2400, and related
+ printers has been improved.
+
+ 9) Raw output now works correctly on the Epson R800 and R1800.
+
+ 10) The Canon driver now handles color and grayscale, and also photo
+ ink cartridges (previously it sometimes handled these incorrectly
+ or even crashed). However, many of these printers still do not
+ print correctly with a photo cartridge installed (the width of
+ the printout is incorrect).
+
+ 11) The GIMP plugin now displays the thumbnail image correctly in CMY
+ mode (previously it displayed incorrect colors).
+
+ 12) Experimental support for the Japan-market Epson printers PM-A900,
+ PM-D800, PM-G730, and PX-V630, and preliminary support for the
+ PM-A650, PM-A750, and PM-A890.
+
+ 13) The definition of the Epson Stylus CX3500, CX3600, CX3650,
+ CX4100, CX4200, CX4500, CX4600, CX4700, CX4800, CX5700, CX5800,
+ CX7700, CX7800, DX4200, DX4250, DX4800, and PX-A650 have been
+ corrected. The DX4800 now works correctly; the color output for
+ all of these printers has been corrected. All of these printers
+ also now print at full speed; they previously printed extremely
+ slowly in many cases.
+
+ The list of resolutions is also slightly different from before;
+ the 2880x1440 DPI resolution is no longer offered; instead,
+ resolutions of 1440x1440 high quality and 1440x1440 highest
+ quality are offered. These resolutions use extra passes of the
+ print head to reduce banding.
+
+ 14) A new option for generating simplified PPD files for CUPS has
+ been added. The --enable-simplified-cups-ppds=yes option to
+ configure allows generating PPD files with only basic options
+ (including only common paper sizes) in addition to the normal,
+ full-featured PPD files; --enable-simplified-cups-ppds=only
+ generates only the simplified PPD files. The -a and -s options
+ to cups-genppd.5.0 may be used manually to do the same thing.
+ This is discussed in the README file.
+
+ 15) cups-genppdupdate.5.0 has significant enhancements:
+
+ * A new option, -N, causes cups-genppdupdate.5.0 to not merge
+ options from the old PPD file into the new file. This can be
+ used to reset a CUPS+Gutenprint PPD file to its original state.
+
+ * A new option, -o, causes cups-genppdupdate.5.0 to output the
+ PPD files into a different directory.
+
+ * It is now possible to specify individual PPD files or printer
+ queue names on the command line to only update/reset specific
+ PPD files.
+
+ * The program no longer tries and fails to update Foomatic-based
+ PPD files.
+
+ 16) The Foomatic data generator now generates simplified data (using
+ a driver name of "gutenprint-ijs-simplified.5.0") in addition to
+ the standard, full-featured data (gutenprint-ijs.5.0).
+
+ 17) The input slots (media sources) have been corrected for the
+ Epson Stylus Photo R1800, R2400, and RX700.
+
+ 18) New options to escputil allow specifying the number of line pairs
+ and number of patterns for head alignment explicitly, if needed.
+ In addition, the number of line pairs for the Epson Stylus Photo
+ 700 has been changed from 7 to 15.
+
+ 19) A few build problems have been fixed.
+
+ 20) A Hungarian translation has been added.
+
+ 21) The configure script now prints out a summary of configuration
+ options selected at the end of the script run. For developers,
+ "autogen.sh --help" now prints out the configure help if the
+ configure script exists.
+
+ 22) The Lexmark driver should now print correctly (this is only
+ partially tested).
+
+ 23) Chilean Office, Chilean Double Letter, and Chilean Double Office
+ paper sizes have been added.
+
+ 24) An error in the Czech, Danish, and Portuguese translations that
+ caused the GIMP plugin to emit a warning at startup has been
+ fixed.
+
+ 25) The package is now built with libtool 1.5.22.
+
+The following bugs have been fixed since Gutenprint 5.0.0-rc3:
+

+----------------
+
+H) ARCHITECTURAL CHANGES:
+
+ 1) Family drivers are now modular. A "family driver" is a
+ collection of printer drivers for one group of printers sharing a
+ common programming architecture, e. g. ESC/P2, PCL, Lexmark,
+ Canon. The drivers can be built as separate modules and loaded
+ at runtime as needed.
+
+ 2) Color processing is now partially modularized. This architecture
+ will enable us, or others, to provide color management without
+ having to change the internal interfaces within Gutenprint.
+
+ 3) New composite data types. Gutenprint 5.0 defines additional data
+ types. These types include:
+
+ * Sequences, curves, and arrays. A sequence is a primitive
+ vector of numbers data type; curves and arrays provide
+ additional capabilities such as interpolation (for curves) and
+ multiple dimensions (for arrays).
+
+ * Lists are a general ordered container of named objects of
+ arbitrary type. They are used throughout the core library in a
+ variety of ways. The creator of a list can specify
+ constructor, destructor, name comparison, copy, and sort
+ operations on list members.
+
+ * Parameters, which are part of the options system described
+ below. In addition to storing values and descriptions of the
+ parameter, parameters can be queried to determine defaults and
+ constraints. Parameter lists (which use the list container
+ internally) are also defined as part of this.
+
+ * String lists are used in various ways; in particular, they are
+ used by the parameter system to inform programs of the
+ available choices of values for string-valued parameters.
+
+ 4) Complete overhaul of the options system. Rather than offering a
+ fixed set of operations, family drivers, color modules, etc. can
+ now offer a wide variety of options using a predefined set of
+ data types. The data types currently supported are strings
+ picked from a list, floating point numbers, integers, curves,
+ arrays, Boolean values, dimensions, and filenames.
+
+ The new options system provides a flexible way for drivers to
+ inform applications of default values and UI hints, the ability
+ to selectively enable and disable options, and a generalized way
+ of verifying legality of option choices.
+
+ 5) The coordinate system has been changed from bottom left to top
+ left of the page, and the printable area can now extend beyond
+ the edge of the page. The result is a more intuitive coordinate
+ system for driver writers that matches the coordinate system of
+ printers, and the ability to do true full bleed.
+
+ 6) The specification of color correction, input, and output modes
+ has been completely revised, permitting applications to specify
+ input mode, output mode, channel bit depth, and color correction
+ completely independently. This architecture is also more
+ extensible.
+
+ 7) Complete overhaul of the black generation in CMYK output. Black
+ generation is now performed in the color code rather than the
+ dither code. This simplifies the dither code, puts the CMYK
+ generation where it should be, and improves overall flexibility.
+
+ 8) Complete overhaul of the multi-tone (photo or quadtone) ink
+ processing architecture (channels). Instead of being processed
+ as part of the dithering code as in 4.2, where ink drops of
+ lighter inks were assigned virtual values proportional to their
+ darkness as well as their size, this is now processed after the
+ initial color conversion. This has a number of major advantages:
+
+ * As the actual amount of ink to be printed is visible to the
+ color code, the color code can do ink limiting without fear
+ that the dither code will change the amount of ink to be
+ printed.
+
+ * It ensures that the same proportions of inks will be printed at
+ any density and resolution. In 4.2, the ramp from light to
+ dark ink varied depending upon the dot sizes available and
+ hence the resolution. This has already been demonstrated to
+ yield much better linearity and much more neutral gray scale
+ with even very modest tuning effort.
+
+ * It enables use of all drop sizes of all ink tones. In 4.2, we
+ could not use the smallest drop size of dark ink, because the
+ virtual dot size of a small dot of dark ink is typically close
+ to the virtual dot size of a large dot of small ink. This
+ would yield very sharp transition, and perhaps even result in
+ more light ink printed in darker regions than in lighter
+ regions. With channel processing separate from dithering, this
+ concern no longer exists; we can safely use small drops of dark
+ ink, improving smoothness.
+
+ * It enables the color code to do ink limiting intelligently
+ without concern that the dither code will rearrange things
+ behind its back.
+
+ * It greatly simplifies the specification of inks. With drop
+ size and darkness orthogonal, family drivers can greatly
+ simplify their tables of inks.
+
+ * Dither algorithms can choose to ignore smaller drop sizes if
+ they wish to offer fast operation.
+
+ * Applications with special requirements can now access the raw
+ ink channels directly. This facility was used to create a
+ mechanism to more accurately tune printer inks.
+
+ 9) The color system can now generate arbitrary ink colors, lifting
+ the CMYK-only restriction in previous versions of the package.
+ This permits full support for the Epson Stylus Photo R800 and
+ R1800, which use red and blue ink in addition to the traditional
+ CMYK.
+
+ 10) Use of true XML to store data about printers and paper sizes, and
+ to represent new data types (sequences, curves, and arrays).
+ This uses the "mxml" XML library, a fast, lightweight XML parser
+ written by Mike Sweet for this project. Currently, the use of
+ XML (as opposed to compiled-in data) is limited, but we expect
+ that this will change beyond the initial 5.0 release.
+
+ 11) In addition to parameters, internal components such as family
+ drivers, color drivers, etc. can store arbitrary data in the
+ basic stp_vars_t object. This facility is used to simplify the
+ internal driver API; the family driver no longer needs to keep
+ track of dither, color, etc. information itself.
+
+ 12) The Epson Stylus family driver has been decomposed into more
+ functionally distinct units. The data schema has been
+ considerably improved, and the code itself broken into more
+ easily maintained units.
+
+ 13) The build system has been updated with a more contemporary
+ toolchain based on autoconf 2.5 and gettext 0.11.
+
+ 14) The Print plugin for the GIMP has been decomposed into a UI
+ library and the core plugin. The user interface library is a
+ pure GTK-based library; the tiny GIMP plugin is a client of this
+ library.
+
+ 15) Printer characteristics are exposed to the application level as
+ read-only parameters. This permits the escputil utility to not
+ duplicate information stored in the printer driver.

+
+ 2) There is a known translation problem building the PPD files used
+ by the CUPS driver such that on many systems all of the PPD
+ files are in the English language. This causes CUPS tools, such
+ as KUPS or http://localhost:631 to display many copies of each
+ PPD file, all in the English (en) language. In fact, the PPD
+ files should be translated into many different languages.
+
+ The PPD files are created by a program named "genppd" in the
+ src/cups directory. This program is called once for each
+ language, and creates all of the PPD files for the language in
+ one shot.
+
+ The command 'zgrep' can be used to determine if genppd is
+ creating the PPD files correctly, as follows:
+
+ src/cups$ zgrep LanguageVersion ppd/*/pcl-4.ppd.gz
+ ppd/C/pcl-4.ppd.gz:*LanguageVersion: English
+ ppd/da/pcl-4.ppd.gz:*LanguageVersion: Danish
+ ppd/en_GB/pcl-4.ppd.gz:*LanguageVersion: English-GB
+ ...
+
+ If the PPD file for each language has a different language
+ version, the genppd program operated correctly. If instead the
+ output looks like this:
+
+ src/cups$ zgrep LanguageVersion ppd/*/stp-pcl-4.5.0.ppd.gz
+ ppd/C/stp-pcl-4.5.0.ppd.gz:*LanguageVersion: English
+ ppd/da/stp-pcl-4.5.0.ppd.gz:*LanguageVersion: English
+ ppd/en_GB/stp-pcl-4.5.0.ppd.gz:*LanguageVersion: English
+ ...
+
+ the program did not operate correctly.
+
+ If you do not have 'zgrep' on your system, you can gunzip the
+ PPD files, and use
+
+ grep LanguageVersion ppd/*/stp-pcl-4.5.0.ppd
+
+ to accomplish the same test.
+
+ The normal mechanism for performing translations is to set the
+ LANG environment variable to the appropriate language prior to
+ running the program. This normally causes the program to search
+ the translations (normally in /usr/share/locale or
+ /usr/lib/locale) for the chosen language. When a specially
+ marked string is used, a special macro calls `gettext()' on the
+ string to retrieve the translation, and substitutes the
+ translation for the string in question.
+
+ There are two problems with this approach in the context of
+ genppd. The translation engine is intended to be used after
+ installation, not during build, and this causes problems.
+
+ i) At the time genppd is run, the translations have not been
+ installed in the normal system directories. Fortunately,
+ it's possible to tell the translation machinery (via
+ bindtextdomain) to look elsewhere for the translation
+ catalogs. What we do is install the catalogs in a temporary
+ directory under src/cups, and tell genppd to instruct the
+ translation machinery to look there. This workaround is
+ straightforward, and doesn't normally cause problems.
+
+ ii) LANG only lets us pick a valid locale (normally determined by
+ listing the directories in /usr/share/locale or
+ /usr/lib/locale). Unfortunately, while language codes (which
+ form the base of locales) are standard, the actual locale
+ names aren't always. On some systems, the locale names are
+ just the language base names; on others, they are the
+ language names concatenated with country codes (e. g. en_US),
+ while on others they are language codes concatenated with
+ character sets. We are not aware of any workaround for this,
+ possibly short of actually running make install and then
+ rebuilding the PPD's. 'make install' will install the
+ message catalogs, and that may create the necessary locale
+ directories. This is not exactly a very elegant approach.
+
+ The GNU gettext library (libintl.a) provides another environment
+ variable, LANGUAGE, which unconditionally looks up translations
+ according to the language, ignoring LANG and the LC_*
+ environment variables that are normally used for translation.
+ This library is no longer included with Gutenprint
+ (--with-included-gettext will not work). Install the GNU
+ gettext package first if you need libintl.a. Many systems
+ provide translation machinery in their standard libraries, and
+ it may not always be best to use foreign libraries to replace
+ standard system functionality.
+
+ We have chosen to use LANGUAGE for this purpose, as the GNU
+ gettext library appears to offer the most reliable translation,
+ and LANGUAGE appears to offer the most reliable mechanism. We
+ have actually found that LANG and LC_* can interfere with
+ LANGUAGE, thus we do not use both.
+
+ To determine if the translations are working, you must actually
+ inspect the PPD files. You will need to
+
+ cd src/cups/ppd/sv
+ gunzip *
+ more *
+
+ or the like to determine if this is successful. In particular,
+ look for LanguageVersion, and make sure that it is correct (it
+ should be "Swedish" in the sv directory, for example), and also
+ make sure that the paper sizes are also translated. We
+ currently suggest using the Swedish translation for this purpose
+ as it is the most complete.
+
+ If packagers find that the PPD files are all in English, rather
+ than translated into the appropriate languages, we suggest the
+ following:
+
+ i) Install GNU gettext (libintl). If your system is not based
+ on GNU libc (Linux usually is based on GNU libc; BSD,
+ Solaris, IRIX, etc. are not), you will need this to have any
+ possibility of creating the translated PPD files.
+
+ ii) Run 'make install' to install the package (including the
+ message catalogs) onto the system first, and then do the
+ following:
+
+ cd src/cups
+ rm ppd-stamp
+ make
+
+ to rebuild the PPD files. Having the message catalogs on the
+ system may permit this to succeed.
+
+ iii) Ensure that your system actually has locales named 'sv',
+ 'pl', and all of the other supported languages, and change
+ LANGUAGE to something more appropriate (most likely LANG,
+ LC_MESSAGES, or LC_ALL).
+
+ iv) Build the PPD files on a Linux-based system; they are
+ portable.
+
+ v) Use --disable-translated-cups-ppds on the configure command line
+ to suppress the translated PPD files altogether.

+ 4) There is a known complication building "escputil" that causes
+ problems on some systems. "escputil" uses the "readline"
+ package, to support command editing and history within the
+ program. Unfortunately, linking programs with "readline" often
+ requires linking against additional libraries, and the exact
+ library depends upon the system (e. g. not all Linux systems have
+ the same requirements).
+
+ The configure script attempts to determine which additional
+ library must be linked against. It tries using the following
+ libraries in this order to build a test executable:
+
+ -lncurses
+ -lcurses
+ -ltermcap
+ no additional libraries
+
+ The reason it tries other libraries first is that some systems
+ will link successfully, but only fail when an attempt is made to
+ actually call readline. Therefore, we assume that additional
+ libraries are required. Since we try the extra libraries in
+ order from most recent to oldest, we expect that the first one we
+ find will be appropriate. For example, if the "ncurses" library
+ is the standard on a given system, the "termcap" library may be
+ provided for back compatibility, but it is unlikely that
+ "termcap" will be the standard with "curses" or "ncurses" being
+ provided for compatibility only (so that the link will succeed
+ but the command will use the incorrect library).
+
+ As this procedure is not failsafe, we provide the following
+ configure options to control this behavior:
+
+ ./configure --with-readline=yes (the default; attempts to
+ determine the correct library
+ to link against)
+
+ ./configure --with-readline=no (turns off use of readline
+ altogether)
+
+ ./configure --with-readline=only (specifically instructs
+ configure to not attempt to
+ link against any other
+ libraries)
+
+ ./configure --with-readline=libs (specifies the libraries to be
+ linked against)
+
+ An hypothetical (this won't work anywhere!) example of the
+ latter would be
+
+ ./configure --with-readline='-lncurses -ltermcap'
+
+ Note that configure will not allow readline to be used if it
+ cannot successfully build the test program, regardless of the
+ option selected. If you are having difficulty getting escputil
+ to build, we suggest using --with-readline=no. The commands
+ used within escputil are very short and seldom require
+ significant editing.

+resolutions and in addition may not function correctly at some
+resolutions. Experimental Epson printers are most likely to produce
+good output at the highest resolution offered (2880x720, 2880x1440,
+2880x2880, or 5760x2880 DPI), since in general these printers will not

+
+B) PRINTER-SPECIFIC NOTES:
+
+ 1) It is strongly recommended that four color mode not be used on
+ the Epson Stylus C63, C64, C65, C66, C70, C80, and CX-5200, and
+ the PX-V500 and PX-V600 when printing to glossy papers, as the
+ black ink is formulated differently from the color ink and does
+ not adhere properly to these papers. Epson Photo Paper, Premium
+ Glossy Photo Paper, Premium Luster Photo Paper, and Premium
+ Semigloss Photo Paper are known to be affected. If you use the
+ default settings (specifically, the Standard ink type), this will
+ be handled automatically.
+
+ 2) The Gutenprint driver does not in all cases offer the same set of
+ resolutions offered by the printer manufacturer's drivers. There
+ are a variety of reasons why that is the case:
+
+ i) In some cases, we have not determined the necessary commands
+ to utilize some resolutions (particularly very high
+ resolutions).
+
+ ii) In some cases, the advertised printer resolution may not
+ match what we determine to be the maximum resolution based on
+ our understanding of the printer's capabilities. Sometimes
+ the advertised resolution is qualified by a statement that
+ implies that the actual resolution may be different from the
+ stated resolution. In some cases, we may be able to achieve
+ the same number of drops per square inch by means of a
+ different resolution. For example, we may determine that a
+ printer that is advertised to support 5760x720 DPI in fact
+ supports 2880x1440 DPI. This is the same number of droplets
+ per square inch (4147200), but with a different aspect ratio
+ (the ratio of the horizontal resolution to the vertical
+ resolution).
+
+ iii) In some cases, we offer additional resolutions not offered by
+ the printer vendor. These resolutions may be either lower or
+ higher than those offered by the printer vendor.
+
+ We frequently offer lower resolutions than those offered by
+ the printer vendor to offer a greater choice of printing
+ speed. These resolutions will offer low quality but very
+ fast printing speed for use where the quality is unimportant
+ but speed is of the greatest importance.
+
+ In some cases, we offer resolutions higher (or simply
+ different) than those advertised by printer vendors. We will
+ offer these options if testing determines that these
+ resolutions can be used safely and we determine that these
+ resolutions offer a potential benefit in quality in some
+ cases.
+
+ It is almost always better to have a printing resolution with
+ a smaller aspect ratio (i. e. the horizontal and vertical
+ resolutions are similar). For example, a resolution of
+ 2880x1440 DPI is likely to yield superior results to a
+ resolution of 5760x720 DPI. Therefore, in some cases we do
+ not offer certain resolutions offered by the printer vendor
+ (in the case of the Epson Stylus Photo R800, 5760x1440 DPI)
+ because they are not likely to yield any benefit (either speed
+ or quality) over another resolution that we offer (in this
+ case, 2880x1440 DPI Highest Quality).
+
+ Indeed, we have received reports that in some cases a lower
+ resolution may actually offer improved quality over a higher
+ resolution. For example, the Epson Stylus Photo 780 is
+ reported to yield better quality at 1440x720 DPI Highest
+ Quality than 2880x720 DPI.
+
+ We periodically evaluate the list of resolutions we offer to
+ decide whether to offer any additional options.
+
+ 3) Many Epson printers (specifically, the Epson Stylus Color 740 and
+ all newer printers) will not respond to ASCII text without a
+ special "activation" sequence (specifically, this command takes
+ the printers out of "packet mode"). A brand new printer, or one
+ that has been connected to a Windows system, may or may not work
+ in packet mode. Therefore, the common suggestion to test a
+ printer port by sending plain text to it may not work for these
+ printers; failure to print in this fashion is not a positive
+ indication that the printer or the connection is malfunctioning.
+ These printers are, however, able to print plain text *after* the
+ activation sequence is sent.
+
+ A suggestion would be to first verify that the printer is capable
+ of returning ink levels. This may be done via
+
+ escputil -i -r /dev/lp0
+
+ (or whatever device your printer is connected to in place of
+ /dev/lp0). If this returns status, it demonstrates that the link
+ between your computer and printer is working.
- * String lists are used in various ways; in particular, they are
- used by the parameter system to inform programs of the
- available choices of values for string-valued parameters.
- 4) Complete overhaul of the options system. Rather than offering a
- fixed set of operations, family drivers, color modules, etc. can
- now offer a wide variety of options using a predefined set of
- data types. The data types currently supported are strings
- picked from a list, floating point numbers, integers, curves,
- arrays, Boolean values, dimensions, and filenames.
+================================================================
- The new options system provides a flexible way for drivers to
- inform applications of default values and UI hints, the ability
- to selectively enable and disable options, and a generalized way
- of verifying legality of option choices.
+VI) LIST OF SUPPORTED OPTIONS
- 5) The coordinate system has been changed from bottom left to top
- left of the page, and the printable area can now extend beyond
- the edge of the page. The result is a more intuitive coordinate
- system for driver writers that matches the coordinate system of
- printers, and the ability to do true full bleed.
+This section details the options available in this release of
+Gutenprint 5.0. More advanced options are subject to change between
+releases, and existing options may acquire additional choices as new
+capabilities are added.
- 6) The specification of color correction, input, and output modes
- has been completely revised, permitting applications to specify
- input mode, output mode, channel bit depth, and color correction
- completely independently. This architecture is also more
- extensible.
+These options are not supported by all printers; depending upon the
+functionality of the driver and printer, different capabilities are
+available for different printers.
- 7) Complete overhaul of the black generation in CMYK output. Black
- generation is now performed in the color code rather than the
- dither code. This simplifies the dither code, puts the CMYK
- generation where it should be, and improves overall flexibility.
+----------------
- 8) Complete overhaul of the multi-tone (photo or quadtone) ink
- processing architecture (channels). Instead of being processed
- as part of the dithering code as in 4.2, where ink drops of
- lighter inks were assigned virtual values proportional to their
- darkness as well as their size, this is now processed after the
- initial color conversion. This has a number of major advantages:
+A) BASIC PRINTER OPTIONS
- * As the actual amount of ink to be printed is visible to the
- color code, the color code can do ink limiting without fear
- that the dither code will change the amount of ink to be
- printed.
+ These options control basic printer functions.
- * It ensures that the same proportions of inks will be printed at
- any density and resolution. In 4.2, the ramp from light to
- dark ink varied depending upon the dot sizes available and
- hence the resolution. This has already been demonstrated to
- yield much better linearity and much more neutral gray scale
- with even very modest tuning effort.
+ Printer Model
- * It enables use of all drop sizes of all ink tones. In 4.2, we
- could not use the smallest drop size of dark ink, because the
- virtual dot size of a small dot of dark ink is typically close
- to the virtual dot size of a large dot of small ink. This
- would yield very sharp transition, and perhaps even result in
- more light ink printed in darker regions than in lighter
- regions. With channel processing separate from dithering, this
- concern no longer exists; we can safely use small drops of dark
- ink, improving smoothness.
+ Select the printer to use. It must always be
+ supplied. When using CUPS or Foomatic, the printer
+ will automatically be selected via the chosen PPD
+ file; with the Print plugin for the GIMP, it is
+ selected in the Setup Printer dialog.
- * It enables the color code to do ink limiting intelligently
- without concern that the dither code will rearrange things
- behind its back.
+ Page Size
- * It greatly simplifies the specification of inks. With drop
- size and darkness orthogonal, family drivers can greatly
- simplify their tables of inks.
+ Select the paper (media) size to print to. Some
+ printers support custom paper sizes, while others only
+ support certain preset sizes. This must always be
+ supplied.
- * Dither algorithms can choose to ignore smaller drop sizes if
- they wish to offer fast operation.
+ Note that this option refers to the actual size of the
+ media, not the printable area. For example, selecting
+ A4 refers to actual A4 paper, whatever the margins may
+ be.
- * Applications with special requirements can now access the raw
- ink channels directly. This facility was used to create a
- mechanism to more accurately tune printer inks.
+ Double-Sided Printing
- 9) The color system can now generate arbitrary ink colors, lifting
- the CMYK-only restriction in previous versions of the package.
- This permits full support for the Epson Stylus Photo R800 and
- R1800, which use red and blue ink in addition to the traditional
- CMYK.
+ Otherwise known as "duplex" printing, this is offered
+ for printers capable of printing on both sides of the
+ page. In addition to single-sided printing, there are
+ two modes of duplex operation: the page may be flipped
+ over its long edge (like a book), or over the short
+ edge (like a note pad; this is sometimes referred to
+ as Tumble).
- 10) Use of true XML to store data about printers and paper sizes, and
- to represent new data types (sequences, curves, and arrays).
- This uses the "mxml" XML library, a fast, lightweight XML parser
- written by Mike Sweet for this project. Currently, the use of
- XML (as opposed to compiled-in data) is limited, but we expect
- that this will change beyond the initial 5.0 release.
+ This option is new to Gutenprint 5.0.
- 10) In addition to parameters, internal components such as family
- drivers, color drivers, etc. can store arbitrary data in the
- basic stp_vars_t object. This facility is used to simplify the
- internal driver API; the family driver no longer needs to keep
- track of dither, color, etc. information itself.
+ Media Type
- 11) The Epson Stylus family driver has been decomposed into more
- functionally distinct units. The data schema has been
- considerably improved, and the code itself broken into more
- easily maintained units.
+ Select the kind of paper or other media being printed
+ to. This enables the printer and driver to be set up
+ appropriately for the kind of paper in use. Most
+ printers offer a choice of supported media types.
- 12) The build system has been updated with a more contemporary
- toolchain based on autoconf 2.5 and gettext 0.11.
+ It is important to set the Media Type to the correct
+ value if possible, or if not to a closely related
+ medium. The printer may need to know what kind of
+ media is in use to determine how to feed the paper
+ correctly; the driver needs to know in order to select
+ the right output settings.
- 13) The Print plugin for the GIMP has been decomposed into a UI
- library and the core plugin. The user interface library is a
- pure GTK-based library; the tiny GIMP plugin is a client of this
- library.
+ Media Source
- 14) Printer characteristics are exposed to the application level as
- read-only parameters. This permits the escputil utility to not
- duplicate information stored in the printer driver.
-================================================================
+ Select the source of the paper or other media. This
+ option is offered with printers that have multiple
+ feeds, for example multiple paper bins, manual feed,
+ printing directly to a CD, etc.
-Known Build/Installation Issues
-
- This section describes a number of issues that have been
- encountered while building or installing Gutenprint. If any of
- these apply to you, please read the notes carefully. The issues
- are:
-
- 1) Building escputil may fail, or escputil may fail to run.
-
- 2) CUPS PPD files may not be translated (there may be multiple
- versions of the PPD files, all in English).
-
- 3) Build/installation of Foomatic data may happen correctly, but
- the generated PPD files do not work correctly.
-
- Detailed descriptions of these issues follow.
+ Ink Set
- * There is a known complication building "escputil" that causes
- problems on some systems. "escputil" uses the "readline"
- package, to support command editing and history within the
- program. Unfortunately, linking programs with "readline" often
- requires linking against additional libraries, and the exact
- library depends upon the system (e. g. not all Linux systems
- have the same requirements).
-
- The configure script attempts to determine which additional
- library must be linked against. It tries using the following
- libraries in this order to build a test executable:
-
- -lncurses
- -lcurses
- -ltermcap
- no additional libraries
-
- The reason it tries other libraries first is that some systems
- will link successfully, but only fail when an attempt is made to
- actually call readline. Therefore, we assume that additional
- libraries are required. Since we try the extra libraries in
- order from most recent to oldest, we expect that the first one
- we find will be appropriate. For example, if the "ncurses"
- library is the standard on a given system, the "termcap" library
- may be provided for back compatibility, but it is unlikely that
- "termcap" will be the standard with "curses" or "ncurses" being
- provided for compatibility only (so that the link will succeed
- but the command will use the incorrect library).
-
- As this procedure is not failsafe, we provide the following
- configure options to control this behavior:
-
- ./configure --with-readline=yes (the default; attempts to
- determine the correct library
- to link against)
-
- ./configure --with-readline=no (turns off use of readline
- altogether)
-
- ./configure --with-readline=only (specifically instructs
- configure to not attempt to
- link against any other
- libraries)
-
- ./configure --with-readline=libs (specifies the libraries to be
- linked against)
-
- An hypothetical (this won't work anywhere!) example of the
- latter would be
-
- ./configure --with-readline='-lncurses -ltermcap'
-
- Note that configure will not allow readline to be used if it
- cannot successfully build the test program, regardless of the
- option selected. If you are having difficulty getting escputil
- to build, we suggest using --with-readline=no. The commands
- used within escputil are very short and seldom require
- significant editing.
-
- * There is a known translation problem building the PPD files used
- by the CUPS driver such that on many systems all of the PPD
- files are in the English language. This causes CUPS tools, such
- as KUPS or http://localhost:631 to display many copies of each
- PPD file, all in the English (en) language. In fact, the PPD
- files should be translated into many different languages.
-
- The PPD files are created by a program named "genppd" in the
- src/cups directory. This program is called once for each
- language, and creates all of the PPD files for the language in
- one shot.
-
- The command 'zgrep' can be used to determine if genppd is
- creating the PPD files correctly, as follows:
-
- src/cups$ zgrep LanguageVersion ppd/*/pcl-4.ppd.gz
- ppd/C/pcl-4.ppd.gz:*LanguageVersion: English
- ppd/da/pcl-4.ppd.gz:*LanguageVersion: Danish
- ppd/en_GB/pcl-4.ppd.gz:*LanguageVersion: English-GB
- ...
-
- If the PPD file for each language has a different language
- version, the genppd program operated correctly. If instead the
- output looks like this:
-
- src/cups$ zgrep LanguageVersion ppd/*/stp-pcl-4.5.0.ppd.gz
- ppd/C/stp-pcl-4.5.0.ppd.gz:*LanguageVersion: English
- ppd/da/stp-pcl-4.5.0.ppd.gz:*LanguageVersion: English
- ppd/en_GB/stp-pcl-4.5.0.ppd.gz:*LanguageVersion: English
- ...
-
- the program did not operate correctly.
-
- If you do not have 'zgrep' on your system, you can gunzip the
- PPD files, and use
-
- grep LanguageVersion ppd/*/stp-pcl-4.5.0.ppd
-
- to accomplish the same test.
-
- The normal mechanism for performing translations is to set the
- LANG environment variable to the appropriate language prior to
- running the program. This normally causes the program to search
- the translations (normally in /usr/share/locale or
- /usr/lib/locale) for the chosen language. When a specially
- marked string is used, a special macro calls `gettext()' on the
- string to retrieve the translation, and substitutes the
- translation for the string in question.
-
- There are two problems with this approach in the context of
- genppd. The translation engine is intended to be used after
- installation, not during build, and this causes problems.
-
- 1) At the time genppd is run, the translations have not been
- installed in the normal system directories. Fortunately,
- it's possible to tell the translation machinery (via
- bindtextdomain) to look elsewhere for the translation
- catalogs. What we do is install the catalogs in a temporary
- directory under src/cups, and tell genppd to instruct the
- translation machinery to look there. This workaround is
- straightforward, and doesn't normally cause problems.
-
- 2) LANG only lets us pick a valid locale (normally determined by
- listing the directories in /usr/share/locale or
- /usr/lib/locale). Unfortunately, while language codes (which
- form the base of locales) are standard, the actual locale
- names aren't always. On some systems, the locale names are
- just the language base names; on others, they are the
- language names concatenated with country codes (e. g. en_US),
- while on others they are language codes concatenated with
- character sets. We are not aware of any workaround for this,
- possibly short of actually running make install and then
- rebuilding the PPD's. 'make install' will install the
- message catalogs, and that may create the necessary locale
- directories. This is not exactly a very elegant approach.
-
- The GNU gettext library (libintl.a) provides another environment
- variable, LANGUAGE, which unconditionally looks up translations
- according to the language, ignoring LANG and the LC_*
- environment variables that are normally used for translation.
- This library is no longer included with Gutenprint
- (--with-included-gettext will not work). Install the GNU
- gettext package first if you need libintl.a. Many systems
- provide translation machinery in their standard libraries, and
- it may not always be best to use foreign libraries to replace
- standard system functionality.
-
- We have chosen to use LANGUAGE for this purpose, as the GNU
- gettext library appears to offer the most reliable translation,
- and LANGUAGE appears to offer the most reliable mechanism. We
- have actually found that LANG and LC_* can interfere with
- LANGUAGE, thus we do not use both.
-
- To determine if the translations are working, you must actually
- inspect the PPD files. You will need to
-
- cd src/cups/ppd/sv
- gunzip *
- more *
-
- or the like to determine if this is successful. In particular,
- look for LanguageVersion, and make sure that it is correct (it
- should be "Swedish" in the sv directory, for example), and also
- make sure that the paper sizes are also translated. We
- currently suggest using the Swedish translation for this purpose
- as it is the most complete.
-
- If packagers find that the PPD files are all in English, rather
- than translated into the appropriate languages, we suggest the
- following:
-
- 1) Install GNU gettext (libintl). If your system is not based
- on GNU libc (Linux usually is based on GNU libc; BSD,
- Solaris, IRIX, etc. are not), you will need this to have any
- possibility of creating the translated PPD files.
-
- 2) Run 'make install' to install the package (including the
- message catalogs) onto the system first, and then do the
- following:
-
- cd src/cups
- rm ppd-stamp
- make
-
- to rebuild the PPD files. Having the message catalogs on the
- system may permit this to succeed.
-
- 3) Ensure that your system actually has locales named 'sv',
- 'pl', and all of the other supported languages, and change
- LANGUAGE to something more appropriate (most likely LANG,
- LC_MESSAGES, or LC_ALL).
-
- 4) Build the PPD files on a Linux-based system; they are
- portable.
-
- 5) Use --disable-translated-cups-ppds on the configure command line
- to suppress the translated PPD files altogether.
-
- Please feel free to contact us about this issue.
-
- * There are multiple issues that one must be aware of when using
- Foomatic with Gutenprint.
-
- 1) Before installing Gutenprint 5.0.0-rc1, you must manually
- remove any existing Foomatic option files. This is because the
- Foomatic utility to load data kits (foomatic-kitload) does not
- remove obsolete data files from the Foomatic database. If you
- do not do this, any PPD files you generate will be incorrect
- and printing may work incorrectly or not at all.
-
- Foomatic option files are usually located in
-
- /usr/local/share/foomatic/db/source/opt
-
- or
-
- /usr/share/foomatic/db/source/opt
-
- Assuming they're in the former location, you must remove data
- files associated with the Gutenprint driver. The command to do
- this, which must be run as the superuser (root) is
-
- cd /usr/local/share/foomatic/db/source/opt
- ls -l gutenprint-ijs*.xml
-
- If there are existing files present, you must remove them:
-
- rm -f gutenprint-ijs*.xml
-
- Now check to make sure that they are gone:
-
- ls -l gutenprint-ijs*.xml
-
- CAUTION: Be very careful when typing this command! Minor
- errors in typing these commands may result in severe damage to
- your system. The Gutenprint installation program does not do
- this automatically because there is currently no reliable way
- to detect where the Foomatic data files are installed.
+ Select the kind of ink in use in the printer, for
+ printers offering different optional inks (for
+ example, ink designed for matte paper vs. ink designed
+ for glossy paper).
- After this, you may run 'make install' in your Gutenprint
- source directory to install the package. You will then need to
- re-create any printer queues using Foomatic.
+ This option is new to Gutenprint 5.0.
- In general, you will have to perform this procedure any time
- you install a new version of Gutenprint.
+ Borderless
- Please check the Foomatic site
- (http://www.linuxprinting.org/foomatic.html) and the Gutenprint
- site (http://gimp-print.sourceforge.net) for updated
- instructions about this.
+ Select whether to print with borders or not, for
+ printers with the capability to print to the edge of
+ the page. This is otherwise known as "full bleed".
- 2) Unlike with the CUPS native driver, there is no simple way to
- update all PPD files when you install a new version of
- Gutenprint. You must either use the foomatic-ppdfile command
- to upgrade PPD files individually, or foomatic-compiledb to
- build all PPD files. The name of the driver in the Foomatic
- database is "gutenprint-ijs.5.0".
+ This option is new to Gutenprint 5.0.
- The Foomatic data is version locked to the Gutenprint release
- installed on the system. For example, PPD files generated
- with the Foomatic data for this release will not work with
- the ijsgutenprint in the next release. This is to prevent
- accidentally using incorrect data, which could cause
- incorrect function to take place.
-================================================================
+ Resolution
+ Select the resolution to print at (dots per inch). In
+ general, higher resolutions produce better quality, at
+ the expense of additional time.
-Supported Printers:
+ As a general rule of thumb, on laser printers and
+ older inkjet printers resolutions of 300 DPI or
+ thereabouts provide draft quality; lower resolutions
+ provide economy draft quality and cannot produce solid
+ black. Resolutions of 600 or 720 DPI produce good
+ quality output; higher resolutions are useful for very
+ high quality image or graphic output. Newer inkjet
+ printers, with smaller ink drop sizes, typically
+ require higher resolutions to produce acceptable
+ output; in some cases even 1440x720 DPI does not
+ produce good quality.
-Many variations on these printers are also supported. Generally, the
-Epson printers are fully supported, although not fully tuned in all
-cases; the Canon, HP, and Lexmark printers vary.
+ Users of Epson inkjet printers have another setting
+ available: the Quality option can be used to
+ indirectly control the printer resolution, among other
+ things. This offers a simpler way to control output
+ quality.
-Our practice is to provide preliminary support for printers as soon as
-we have information sufficient to code a functioning driver, and to
-release this support even in an otherwise stable release. In this
-case, we note in the list below that support for a particular printer
-is "Experimental". It is likely that printers that are supported in
-"Experimental" mode will produce poor quality at some or all
-resolutions and in addition may not function correctly at some
-resolutions. Experimental Epson printers are most likely to produce
-good output at the highest resolution offered (2880x720, 2880x1440, or
-2880x2880 DPI), since in general these printers will not use multiple
-drop sizes at such high resolutions.
-Note that Gutenprint supports only the printer in multi-function
-devices -- this package does not support scanning, fax, copying, or
-any other function. For scanning, please visit the SANE project
-(http://www.sane-project.org).

+B) ADVANCED PRINTER OPTIONS
-The following is the complete list of printers believed to be
-compatible with Gutenprint, along with recommended drivers. Some of
-these printers may work only partially; the specified drivers may not
-support the full range of resolutions, paper sizes, media sources,
-etc. that some of these printers may offer.
+ These options control less frequently used printer options. All
+ of these options are new to Gutenprint 5.0.
+
+ CD Hub Size
+
+ This setting may be used on printers with the
+ capability to print directly to a CD. Depending upon
+ your choice of media, you may be able to safely print
+ all the way to the inner hole of the CD, or you may
+ not be able to print any closer than the hub about an
+ inch from the center.
+
+ CD Horizontal Fine Adjustment
+ CD Vertical Fine Adjustment
+
+ These settings allow you to shift the position of the
+ print while printing to a CD. If you find that your
+ print is not centered on the CD surface, you may need
+ to adjust these setting to compensate.

+ Enhanced Gloss
+
+ Some newer printers have a cartridge of "gloss
+ enhancer", which helps solve the problem of pigment
+ inks having an inconsistent lustre on glossy paper.
+ Use this option to enable use of the gloss enhancer.
+
+ Laminate Pattern
+
+ Some dye sublimation printers are able achieve better
+ durability of output by covering it with transparent
+ laminate surface. This surface can be of different
+ patterns: common are matte, glossy or texture.
+
+
+----------------
+
+C) SPECIALIZED PRINTER OPTIONS
+
+ These options control unusual printer features. They may be
+ useful in certain circumstances; generally the default settings
+ will work optimally.
+
+ Ink Type
+
+ Select which subset of inks to use for printing. For
+ example, on a photo printer with additional light cyan
+ and light magenta inks, it's possible to print with
+ only the standard cyan, magenta, yellow, and black
+ inks.
+
+ Normally there is no reason to use any setting other
+ than the default. Reasons why one might want to use
+ it include:
+
+ 1) Some black inks are not compatible with certain
+ glossy papers. If the black ink smudges on your
+ paper, you may elect to use an option without black
+ ink (a "composite" setting).
+
+ 2) Some inks or paper/ink combinations produce color
+ shifts when the light inks are used. If your
+ chosen combination produces unacceptable color
+ shifts or color casts, you may prefer to use the
+ Four Color Standard option, which will generally
+ yield more consistent color at the expense of
+ "grainier" output.
-Printer-Specific Notes:
-
- * It is strongly recommended that four color mode not be used on
- the Epson Stylus C63, C64, C65, C66, C70, C80, and CX-5200, and
- the PX-V500 and PX-V600 when printing to glossy papers, as the
- black ink is formulated differently from the color ink and does
- not adhere properly to these papers. Epson Photo Paper, Premium
- Glossy Photo Paper, Premium Luster Photo Paper, and Premium
- Semigloss Photo Paper are known to be affected. If you use the
- Standard ink type, this will be handled automatically.
-
- * The Gutenprint driver does not in all cases offer the same set
- of resolutions offered by the printer manufacturer's drivers.
- There are a variety of reasons why that is the case:
-
- 1) In some cases, we have not determined the necessary commands
- to utilize some resolutions (particularly very high
- resolutions).
-
- 2) In some cases, the advertised printer resolution may not
- match what we determine to be the maximum resolution based on
- our understanding of the printer's capabilities. Sometimes
- the advertised resolution is qualified by a statement that
- implies that the actual resolution may be different from the
- stated resolution. In some cases, we may be able to achieve
- the same number of drops per square inch by means of a
- different resolution. For example, we may determine that a
- printer that is advertised to support 5760x720 DPI in fact
- supports 2880x1440 DPI. This is the same number of droplets
- per square inch (4147200), but with a different aspect ratio
- (the ratio of the horizontal resolution to the vertical
- resolution).
-
- 3) In some cases, we offer additional resolutions not offered by
- the printer vendor. These resolutions may be either lower or
- higher than those offered by the printer vendor.
-
- We frequently offer lower resolutions than those offered by
- the printer vendor to offer a greater choice of printing
- speed. These resolutions will offer low quality but very
- fast printing speed for use where the quality is unimportant
- but speed is of the greatest importance.
-
- In some cases, we offer resolutions higher (or simply
- different) than those advertised by printer vendors. We will
- offer these options if testing determines that these
- resolutions can be used safely and we determine that these
- resolutions offer a potential benefit in quality in some
- cases. For example, we offer resolutions of 2880x2880 and
- 5760x2880 DPI on the Epson Stylus Photo R800 despite the
- advertised maximum resolution of 5760x1440 DPI. Testing has
- verified that these resolutions do in fact operate correctly
- and offer benefit over lower resolutions.
-
- It is almost always better to have a printing resolution with
- a smaller aspect ratio (i. e. the horizontal and vertical
- resolutions are similar). For example, a resolution of
- 2880x1440 DPI is likely to yield superior results to a
- resolution of 5760x720 DPI. Therefore, in some cases we do
- not offer certain resolutions offered by the printer vendor
- (in the case of the Epson Stylus Photo R800, 5760x1440 DPI)
- because they are not likely to yield any benefit (either
- speed or quality) over another resolution that we offer (in
- this case, 2880x2880 DPI).
-
- Indeed, we have received reports that in some cases a lower
- resolution may actually offer improved quality over a higher
- resolution. For example, the Epson Stylus Photo 780 is
- reported to yield better quality at 1440x720 DPI Highest
- Quality than 2880x720 DPI.
-
- We periodically evaluate the list of resolutions we offer to
- decide whether to offer any additional options.
-
- * Many Epson printers (specifically, the Epson Stylus Color 740
- and all newer printers) will not respond to ASCII text without a
- special "activation" sequence (specifically, this command takes
- the printers out of "packet mode"). A brand new printer, or one
- that has been connected to a Windows system, may or may not work
- in packet mode. Therefore, the common suggestion to test a
- printer port by sending plain text to it may not work for these
- printers; failure to print in this fashion is not a positive
- indication that the printer or the connection is malfunctioning.
- These printers are, however, able to print plain text *after*
- the activation sequence is sent.
-
- A suggestion would be to first verify that the printer is
- capable of returning ink levels. This may be done via
-
- escputil -i -r /dev/lp0
-
- (or whatever device your printer is connected to in place of
- /dev/lp0). If this returns status, it demonstrates that the
- link between your computer and printer is working.
+ Printing Direction
+
+ Most inkjet printers can print either unidirectionally
+ (the head prints only when moving in one direction) or
+ bidirectionally (the head prints when moving in both
+ directions). Bidirectional printing is generally
+ faster, since the printer is printing at all times
+ rather than wasting much of the time returning the
+ head to the starting position. On many printers,
+ however, unidirectional printing produces better
+ quality output than bidirectional printing.
+
+ The standard setting for this option adapts to the
+ printing resolution.
+
+ This option is new to Gutenprint 5.0, but Gimp-Print
+ 4.2 offered this option in the form of extra
+ resolution choices.
+
+ Interleave Method
+
+ Most inkjet printers create the printed image using
+ multiple overlapping passes of the print head. On
+ many printers this function is performed within the
+ printer itself and cannot be adjusted, but with many
+ Epson inkjet printers (and some others), this is
+ performed by the driver or may be specified to the
+ printer. One advantage of the multiple overlapping
+ passes is that it can hide small differences between
+ the individual print head nozzles, which would
+ otherwise be visible as banding. The different
+ interleave methods are different strategies for
+ for performing this overlapping; some are better at
+ hiding the banding than others. They all require the
+ same amount of time to print.
+
+ Generally it is not necessary to adjust this; in some
+ cases, depending upon your printer, you may find that
+ one pattern or another performs better.
+
+ On Epson Stylus Pro printers, this option allows
+ specifying different overlap patterns within the
+ printer. In this case, the choice of overlap pattern
+ may affect both the printing time and the quality to a
+ significant degree.
+
+ This option is new to Gutenprint 5.0.
+
+ Adjust dot size as necessary
+
+ This option is provided on many Epson inkjet printers
+ to allow you to use larger ink drops than those
+ normally used for the resolution chosen. This may be
+ necessary if you use certain kinds of media or for
+ some reason wish to use much more ink (higher density)
+ than the default. It should not be necessary to use
+ this option.
+
+ This option is new to Gutenprint 5.0.
+
+
+----------------
+
+D) BASIC OUTPUT CONTROLS
+
+ Output Type
+
+ This option specifies whether to print in color or
+ black and white/grayscale (using only black inks).
+ Black and white printing is generally faster than
+ color printing, even if the item being printed is
+ entirely black and white. However, printing with only
+ black ink may yield a "grainy" appearance.
+
+ This option was present in Gutenprint 4.2, but it
+ offered an additional option of "black and white",
+ which printed everything as either black or white (no
+ grayscale). The Gutenprint 5.0 equivalent is to set
+ Color Correction to Threshold.
+
+ Color Correction
+
+ This selects the choice of color correction method
+ within Gutenprint. The following options are
+ presently offered:
+
+ * DEFAULT: Select a color correction mode appropriate
+ for the document type being printed.
+
+ * HIGH ACCURACY: Apply optimum color correction to the
+ output to produce the best color quality. This
+ corrects the hue, brightness, and saturation
+ (brilliance of color). This is the normal setting
+ to use for printing photographs or graphics if you
+ are not using any external color management.
+
+ * BRIGHT COLORS: Apply color correction to the output,
+ but generate more brilliant colors in some cases.
+
+ * CORRECT HUE ONLY: Apply color correction to the
+ output, but correct only the hue. This option does
+ not correct brightness and saturation.
+
+ * UNCORRECTED: Do not apply any color correction to
+ the output beyond generating linear output. This is
+ the best setting to use when utilizing external
+ color management; the high accuracy modes employ
+ correction algorithms that may not work well with
+ color management.
+
+ Note that if you use color management you should use
+ profiles created with Gutenprint and with the exact
+ settings that you plan to print with. Profiles
+ provided by the printer vendor are calibrated for
+ the vendor's driver, which may not be identical to
+ Gutenprint's calibration. In addition, profiles
+ created using Gimp-Print 4.2 or earlier will
+ generally not perform well with Gutenprint 5.0.
+
+ * DESATURATED: Print in pure grayscale, but using
+ color inks. The result is somewhat different from
+ printing in black and white using the Output Type
+ option -- the driver may use color ink, which
+ generates smoother output and may yield better
+ results on many papers.
+
+ * THRESHOLD: Convert all colors to fully on or fully
+ off, eliminating all gradual tonal gradations. The
+ result is that the output will consist of all very
+ pure colors.
+
+ * DENSITY: Correct only the amount of ink ("density"),
+ otherwise performing no correction at all, even for
+ linearity. Prints made with this option will
+ usually be very dark if no other color management is
+ used. This may be useful if you are printing in 16
+ bit precision or are using your own linearization
+ curves.
+
+ * RAW: Perform no correction at all, even for
+ density. Prints made with this option will be very
+ dark and may bleed (or even puddle!) ink if not used
+ with external color management and linearization.
+ This option may be useful if you are using external
+ color management and linearization to get extremely
+ saturated dark colors by using more ink in
+ individual channels. It should be used with extreme
+ caution, as it is very easy to damage the printer if
+ you are not careful.
+
+ * PRE-DITHERED: Interpret each pixel as the actual
+ size of each drop to be printed. Legal values of
+ the drop sizes differ between printers; all printers
+ support 0 (no droplet) and 1 (the largest droplet).
+ Some printers support four levels (0, 1, 2, and 3).
+
+ This option is new to Gutenprint 5.0, but its function
+ was partially encompassed by the Image Type option.
+
+
+ Image Type
+
+ Specify the option that best describes your print job.
+ Your choice here will affect the processing of the
+ print job. Currently available settings are:
+
+ * TEXT: Optimize the output for printing black text
+ with no graphics. This option results in crisp
+ output and is very fast, but will yield very poor
+ results with any color or grayscale graphics.
+
+ * GRAPHICS: Optimize the output for printing color
+ graphics. This option will generate smooth, bright
+ output.
+
+ * MIXED TEXT AND GRAPHICS: Optimize the output for
+ printing a mixture of text and graphics.
+
+ * PHOTOGRAPH: Optimize the output for printing
+ photographs. This option will generate smooth
+ tones and high quality colors, but will be slower
+ than the other options.
+
+ * LINE ART: Optimize the output for printing black and
+ white line art with intricate detail.
+
+ * MANUAL CONTROL: Do not bias the output at all; use
+ only the settings specified by the user.
+
+ This option was present in Gimp-Print 4.2, but with
+ fewer choices and more restrictions on their use. Its
+ functioned more like the Color Correction option in
+ Gutenprint 5.0.
+
+
+ Print Quality
+
+ Specify the desired output quality using convenient
+ presets. Where this option is available, Gutenprint
+ will automatically adjust the printing resolution and
+ other options to generate the desired quality.
+ Settings chosen with this option may be overridden by
+ explicitly setting other settings, such as resolution.
+ Not all printers offer all of these options.
+ Currently available settings, in increasing order of
+ quality, include:
+
+ * FAST ECONOMY: Use the fastest printing mode
+ available on the printer to print with a minimum
+ amount of ink. This option will produce very washed
+ out colors and grays, and will typically be
+ extremely grainy and streaky.
+
+ * ECONOMY: Print very rapidly with a reduced amount of
+ ink. This option will produce washed out colors and
+ grays and will typically be quite grainy and
+ streaky.
+
+ * DRAFT: Print low quality draft output quickly. This
+ option will typically produce acceptable colors with
+ some amount of grain on plain paper, but will
+ typically produce washed out and grainy output on
+ high quality papers. On some printers this may
+ employ a special draft mode to print especially
+ quickly at the expense of color fidelity.
+
+ * STANDARD: Print at a normal quality level for text
+ or text/graphics on plain paper or basic inkjet
+ paper. This option will typically produce
+ acceptable colors, but on high quality papers the
+ output may be grainy or somewhat washed out. This
+ option may also be useful for printing draft copies
+ of photographs on coated inkjet paper.
+
+ * HIGH: Print final copies of text or text/graphics on
+ plain paper or inkjet paper. This option will
+ typically produce good color quality, but the
+ quality may not be optimal for photographs on glossy
+ paper. This option may also be useful for printing
+ draft copies of photographs on glossy paper.
+
+ * PHOTO: Print photographs on glossy paper or very
+ high quality text, text/graphics, or line art on
+ high quality paper. In the latter application this
+ will produce output close to laser printer quality.
+ On the highest quality premium papers the result may
+ still be a bit grainy.
+
+ * SUPER PHOTO: Print photographs on glossy paper with
+ very high quality. This will generally yield very
+ good results on high quality premium paper but may
+ be overkill on other papers. This option is only
+ offered on printers capable of producing very high
+ quality output rivaling traditional photographic
+ printing. This option may also be appropriate for
+ very intricate line art, where the required
+ resolution may exceed the capabilities of laser
+ printers.
+
+ * ULTRA PHOTO: Print photographs on premium papers
+ with extremely high quality. This option is only
+ offered on printers capable of producing extremely
+ high quality output matching or exceeding
+ traditional photographic printing.
+
+ * BEST: Print with the best quality available on the
+ printer for the application chosen. This may be
+ equivalent to one of the other settings; on a very
+ few printers the resolution may exceed that of Ultra
+ Photo mode.
+
+ * MANUAL CONTROL: Do not adjust the settings at all;
+ use only the settings specified by the user.
+
+ This option is new to Gutenprint 5.0.
+
+
+----------------
+
+E) BASIC OUTPUT ADJUSTMENTS
+
+ Saturation
+
+ This option controls the vividness of the output
+ color; higher values produce more vivid colors. Very
+ low values produce muted colors; setting this to zero
+ produces gray.
+
+ Contrast
+
+ This controls the contrast of the output. Lower
+ values produce less tonal range in the midtones
+ (lighter colors become darker, and darker colors
+ become lighter), which may allow for more definition
+ in the highlights and shadows. Higher values do the
+ opposite: lighter colors become even lighter, while
+ darker colors become even darker.
+
+ This option behaves differently from its equivalent in
+ Gimp-Print 4.2. In Gimp-Print 4.2, setting contrast
+ less than 1 changed the white point and black point:
+ white became light gray and black became dark gray.
+ In Gutenprint 5.0 this control changes the shape of
+ the curve, but the black and white points remain the
+ same. The Linear Contrast Adjustment option described
+ below restores the Gimp-Print 4.2 behavior.
+
+ Brightness
+
+ This control adjusts the general brightness of the
+ print; higher values produce generally lighter output,
+ while lower values produce generally darker output.
+ White and black are not changed; colors also retain
+ their hue and saturation.
+
+ This option behaves differently from its equivalent in
+ Gimp-Print 4.2. In Gimp-Print 4.2, setting brightness
+ greater than 1 caused black to print as gray, while
+ setting brightness to less than 1 caused white to
+ print as gray. In Gutenprint 5.0 this control changes
+ the shape of the curve, but the black and white points
+ remain the same.
+
+
+----------------
+
+F) ADVANCED OUTPUT ADJUSTMENTS
+
+ These controls adjust more specialized settings.
+
+ Dither Algorithm
+
+ Since inkjet printers have a limited set of ink colors
+ (normally cyan, magenta, yellow, and black), most
+ colors have to be produced by mixing the available
+ inks. This is done by printing patterns of very small
+ dots, fooling the eye into seeing many different
+ shades. This process is called "dithering"; several
+ different patterns are available, with trade-offs
+ between speed and quality. The following dither
+ algorithms are currently available. If no algorithm
+ is selected, the driver chooses an appropriate one
+ based on other option settings. The following
+ algorithms are currently available, generally in
+ increasing order of quality.
+
+ * VERY FAST: This algorithm produces very rough,
+ patterned output, but is extremely fast. This
+ generally yields poor results on modern inkjet
+ printers, particularly models that offer multiple
+ drop sizes, but it can yield very good results on
+ laser printers. It is a good choice for printing
+ text or line art where no grayscale or color is
+ used, and also works very well when Threshold color
+ correction is used.
+
+ * FAST: This algorithm also produces output with very
+ strong diagonal patterns, and is also quite fast.
+ It produces somewhat better results on modern inkjet
+ printers that offer multiple drop sizes, but offers
+ no advantages on laser printers or old (generally
+ pre-1999) inkjet printers.
+
+ * ORDERED: This algorithm produces much smoother
+ output than Fast or Very Fast. It is somewhat
+ slower than those algorithms. It utilizes a fixed
+ pattern that is generally free of artifacts, but it
+ has some noise (roughness of texture) that may be
+ objectionable with smooth-toned images. It is an
+ excellent choice for printing draft copies of
+ business graphics or photographs (charts, etc.) due
+ to its lack of artifacts.
+
+ * ADAPTIVE HYBRID: This algorithm produces slightly
+ smoother output than Ordered dithering, at some cost
+ in performance. It uses a fixed pattern in
+ highlights to avoid artifacts, and error diffusion
+ at higher densities to reduce noise. It is an
+ excellent choice for printing business graphics due
+ to its lack of artifacts and smooth texture in
+ darker tones.
+
+ * EVEN TONE: This relatively new algorithm yields
+ excellent smoothness in all tones (light, midtone,
+ and shadow), but is considerably slower than most of
+ the other algorithms. It is somewhat prone to
+ artifacts, including "tearing", at sharp boundaries.
+ This algorithm is well-suited for printing
+ photographs, but is not as suitable for printing
+ solid-tone graphics.
+
+ * HYBRID EVEN TONE: This algorithm combines Even Tone
+ and Ordered dithering to yield smooth results with
+ fewer artifacts than Even Tone dithering, but is
+ even slower than standard Even Tone. It uses the
+ fixed pattern of Ordered dithering to break up the
+ artifacts of Even Tone dithering. The result is not
+ quite as smooth as pure Even Tone, but the reduction
+ of artifacts makes this an excellent choice for
+ photographs or photographs mixed with other
+ graphics.
+
+ * PREDITHERED: This is used in combination with
+ dithering performed outside of Gutenprint or with
+ printers that perform their own dithering. It
+ assumes that the output is already dithered and
+ generates the appropriate drops based only on the
+ values provided.
+
+ Linear Contrast Adjustment
+
+ The standard contrast control does not adjust the
+ black and white points of the output; black in the
+ input becomes black in the output, for example. The
+ result is that if contrast is reduced below 1, the
+ contrast in the highlights and shadows is actually
+ increased to keep the same total tonal range.
+
+ Gimp-Print 4.2 used a different kind of contrast
+ control. In Gimp-Print 4.2, reducing the contrast
+ reduced the contrast throughout the tonal range,
+ resulting in white being printed as a light gray and
+ black as a dark gray (reducing the contrast all the
+ way to zero resulted in a uniform gray). If contrast
+ was increased, the contrast was stretched until the
+ output reached either black or white; anything lighter
+ always printed as white and anything darker as black.
+
+ Turning this control on selects the old Gimp-Print 4.2
+ behavior. This control is normally turned off.
+
+
+----------------
+
+G) OUTPUT DENSITY (INK QUANTITY) CONTROLS
+
+ These controls adjust the amount of ink printed on the page.
+ These controls may be used to darken a solid, pure black, or
+ eliminate puddling (wet ink left on the paper that does not dry in
+ the printer) if needed. They may also be useful for adjusting the
+ behavior of non-standard inks. They should not be used to lighten
+ or darken the print if the black level is correct.
+
+ These controls are adjustments -- they adjust the amount of ink
+ relative to the amount selected by the driver for the paper and
+ resolution chosen.
+
+ Density Value
+
+ This control adjusts the total amount of ink used in
+ all channels (ink colors).
+
+ Black Density Value
+ Blue Density Value
+ Cyan Density Value
+ Magenta Density Value
+ Yellow Density Value
+ Red Density Value
+
+ These controls adjust the amount of ink used by each
+ channel separately. They may be used to correct the
+ amount of ink if needed to strengthen or weaken
+ particular colors (e. g. if yellow is too strong or
+ too weak). They should not be used to correct gray
+ balance (to produce neutral gray) -- the gray balance
+ controls described below should be used for that
+ purpose.
+
+ These options are new to Gutenprint 5.0.
+
+ Ink Limit Value
+
+ This control adjusts the maximum amount of ink that
+ the driver will use to print with. This may be used
+ if you want to use large amounts of particular inks to
+ achieve saturated dark colors, without using excessive
+ ink overall that will result in ink puddling or
+ spilling within the printer. This control should be
+ used only by people very experienced in inkjet
+ printing.
+
+ This option is new to Gutenprint 5.0.
+
+
+----------------
+
+H) GRAY BALANCE CONTROLS
+
+ These controls adjust the gray balance by changing the amount of
+ each color of ink used to produce gray. For example, if gray
+ prints somewhat greenish, it can be corrected by increasing the
+ magenta balance. These options are new to Gutenprint 5.0.
+
+ Magenta Balance Value
+ Yellow Balance Value
+ Cyan Balance Value
+
+
+----------------
+
+I) OUTPUT GAMMA CONTROLS
+
+ These controls permit adjusting the gamma (exponent) of the
+ transfer curves of the individual channels. On most printers,
+ using a linear ink scale (that is, the amount of ink is directly
+ proportional to the input value) will produce very dark
+ highlights, as even quite small amounts of ink produce very strong
+ colors or gray. Therefore, the driver uses less ink to produce
+ lighter colors. This does not affect the darkest tones.
+
+ Setting these controls to larger values results in lighter
+ highlights and midtones and increase contrast in the dark tones,
+ while lower values result in darker midtones and highlights with
+ reduced dark tone contrast. These controls are adjustments --
+ they adjust the gamma relative to the gamma chosen by the driver
+ by multiplying them together. For example, if the driver uses a
+ gamma value of 2.0 for a particular printer, and you specify a
+ gamma of 0.75, the actual gamma used to print will be 1.5.
+
+ Composite Gamma Value
+
+ This control adjusts the gamma of all available ink
+ channels when printing in color.
+
+ This option is equivalent to the Gamma option in
+ Gimp-Print 4.2.
+
+ Black Gamma Value
+
+ This control adjusts the gamma of the black channel
+ when printing in grayscale.
+
+ This option is new to Gutenprint 5.0.
+
+ Cyan Gamma Value
+ Magenta Gamma Value
+ Yellow Gamma Value
+
+ These controls adjust the gamma of individual channels
+ when printing on printers that use cyan, magenta, and
+ yellow inks (all inkjet printers use CMY inks). These
+ gamma values are multiplied by the composite gamma
+ value and the gamma chosen by the driver.
+
+ Note that the black gamma value is not used when
+ printing in color. That is because the amount of gray
+ is computed after the gamma transformation has been
+ applied to each channel, and the black channel is
+ synthesized from this value. The GCR Transition Value
+ serves as a gamma value for the black channel. In
+ addition, there are no gamma values for the special
+ channels for printers that offer additional inks (such
+ as red and blue) for similar reasons.
+
+ These controls are equivalent to the Cyan, Magenta,
+ and Yellow controls in Gimp-Print 4.2.
+
+ Red Gamma Value
+ Green Gamma Value
+ Blue Gamma Value
+
+ These controls adjust the gamma of individual channels
+ when printing on printers that use red, green, and
+ blue inks (Postscript printers and many dye
+ sublimation printers use red, green, and blue colors).
+ These gamma values are multiplied by the composite
+ gamma value and the gamma chosen by the driver.
+
+ These options are new to Gutenprint 5.0; Gimp-Print
+ 4.2 referred to them as Cyan, Magenta, and Yellow even
+ if the output was RGB.
+
+
+----------------
+
+J) GRAY GENERATION CONTROLS
+
+ These controls adjust the conversion of gray into black ink and
+ composite (CMY) components. When printing in color, light grays
+ are often printed using composite inks rather than black ink to
+ reduce the speckling effect of dark black dots, while dark grays
+ and black are usually printed using black ink to achieve a darker
+ black. With some ink and paper combinations it is necessary to
+ use a mixture of black and composite components to achieve maximum
+ density and in some cases to achieve neutral grays (some pigment
+ black inks are actually brown).
+
+ The effect of using too much or too little black ink varies.
+ Typically if too much black ink is used light colors and grays
+ will have noticeable speckling from the black drops, while if too
+ little black ink is used the midtones and dark tones will be
+ washed out and in some cases too much ink will be used leading to
+ puddles on the page. In some cases very large amounts of
+ composite ink cause color shifts (darker grays are not neutral).
+ Epson Premium Glossy Photo Paper seems to be particularly prone to
+ this problem, particularly with dye inks.
+
+ In general, lower-quality papers require more black ink (composite
+ inks generally cannot create very dark tones), while higher
+ quality papers require less black ink (the composite inks can
+ create much darker grays, and the black dots appear much sharper).
+
+ Setting these controls effectively requires a good understanding
+ of gray generation and a fair amount of experimentation. Normally
+ it's only necessary to set the paper type correctly to get good
+ results.
+
+ These options are all new to Gutenprint 5.0.
+
+ GCR Lower Bound Value
+
+ This control specifies the darkest shade of gray at
+ which no black ink will be used (i. e. any lighter
+ gray component will be printed using only composite
+ inks). Setting this control to zero means that some
+ amount of black ink will always be used; setting it to
+ 1 means that no black ink will ever be used.
+
+ GCR Upper Bound Value
+
+ This control specifies the lightest shade of gray at
+ which no composite CMY ink will be used (i. e. this
+ level of gray and higher will be printed using only
+ black ink). This control should never be set any
+ lower than the GCR Lower Bound Value. Setting this
+ control to zero means that only black ink is used to
+ print any gray value; setting this control to a value
+ greater than one means that some composite ink will be
+ used even when printing black. The upper limit for
+ this control is 5 (in which case black will be printed
+ with no more than 20% black ink).
+
+ If you use an ink set requiring use of color inks to
+ produce neutral grayscale, you should set the GCR
+ Lower Bound Value to zero or a value very close to
+ zero and the GCR Upper Bound Value should be greater
+ than 1, along with a GCR Transition Value (below) of
+ 1. This will ensure that the proportion of black and
+ color inks will be close to constant throughout the
+ gray range. With this kind of inkset, it's often
+ possible to produce cool or warm toned grayscale
+ prints by selecting Desaturated color correction and
+ adjusting the GCR Upper Bound Value appropriately.
+ For example, if the black ink has a brown (warm) cast,
+ increasing the GCR Upper Bound Value will yield a
+ cooler tone (less black ink) while decreasing it will
+ yield a warmer tone (more black ink).
+
+ GCR Transition Value
+
+ This control specifies the gamma of the GCR transition
+ curve. Setting this control to a smaller value
+ results in less black ink being used in the lighter
+ portion of the transition region. This control is
+ useful if the black ink is much darker than the
+ composite inks in order to produce a smoother
+ transition.
+
+ GCR Curve
+
+ This control (only available through the Print plugin
+ for the GIMP or other Gutenprint-based applications
+ that provide curve capability) allows you to specify
+ the conversion curve from gray to black/composite
+ precisely. The horizontal axis of this curve
+ represents the gray level (between 0, or no gray at
+ all, and 1, or pure black); the vertical axis
+ represents the fraction of gray that is converted to
+ black (0 means only composite inks, and 1 means only
+ black ink).

+K) OUTPUT LINEARIZATION CURVES (GIMP Plugin Only)
+
+ These controls permit adjusting the transfer (linearization)
+ curves of each channel precisely. They are only available through
+ the Print plugin for the GIMP or other Gutenprint-based
+ applications that provide curve capability. All of these controls
+ are considered to be for very advanced use only. These options
+ are all new to Gutenprint 5.0.

+
+L) DETAILED COLOR CORRECTION CURVES (GIMP Plugin Only)
+
+ These controls permit adjusting precise characteristics of color
+ generation/correction. They are only available through the Print
+ plugin for the GIMP or other Gutenprint-based applications that
+ provide curve capability. All of these controls are considered to
+ be for very advanced use only.
+
+ The horizontal axis of all of these curves represents the hue of
+ the output. Hue is measured as an angle, where 0 and 360 degrees
+ represent cyan (or red, if the output inks are RGB).
+ Conventionally, these angles are represented as a number between 0
+ and 6 (each full number in this scale represents 60 degrees). The
+ specific hue angles for CMY and RGB outputs are as follows:
+
+ \ Ink Type
+ Angle \ RGB CMY
+ ----- \ --- ---
+ 0 | Red Cyan
+ 1 | Yellow Blue
+ 2 | Green Magenta
+ 3 | Cyan Red
+ 4 | Blue Yellow
+ 5 | Magenta Green
+ 6 | Red Cyan
+
+ These options are all new to Gutenprint 5.0.
+
+ Hue Adjustment Curve
+ Luminosity Adjustment Curve
+ Saturation Adjustment Curve
+
+ These controls adjust the color correction in High
+ Accuracy, Bright Colors, and Correct Hue Only color
+ correction modes. These color correction modes work
+ by adjusting the hue, saturation, and luminosity (HSL)
+ of the output inks to achieve a more accurate color
+ than the color created by simply converting the red,
+ green, and blue inputs to cyan, magenta, and yellow
+ (or red, green, and blue) inks. Note that in this
+ printing context luminosity represents darkness
+ (amount of light subtracted) rather than brightness.
+
+ The saturation and hue adjustments are first applied.
+ The luminosity correction operates on only the color
+ component of the output. Before this correction is
+ applied, any gray value is removed, and added back
+ after the correction is completed.
+
+ The vertical axis of the Hue Adjustment Curve
+ represents an angular difference that is added to the
+ base hue value to generate the desired output. For
+ example, if the blue output is purple (too close to
+ magenta), adding a negative value to that range of the
+ output will bring the blue value more toward cyan
+ (less magenta).
+
+ The vertical axis of the Saturation Adjustment Curve
+ represents an amount by which the saturation is
+ multiplied. At any given hue point it may take on any
+ value between 0 (eliminate all color saturation, which
+ is equivalent to converting to pure gray) and 4
+ (dramatically boost the saturation). Therefore, this
+ adjustment may be used to tone down excessively
+ brilliant colors (e. g. if the reds are overly
+ brilliant) or brighten up dull colors (e. g. if the
+ greens are somewhat dull). This control has no effect
+ if Correct Hue Only is used. If the saturation value
+ is greater than 1, the effect differs depending upon
+ whether High Accuracy or Bright Colors mode is
+ selected: if Bright Colors is selected, the saturation
+ is simply multiplied by the desired value and then set
+ to 1 if it would exceed unity. If High Accuracy mode
+ is selected, the amount of saturation boost is
+ decreased if the starting saturation is high.
+
+ The vertical axis of the Luminosity Adjustment Curve
+ represents an amount by which the luminosity is
+ multiplied. At any given hue point it may take on any
+ value between 0 (remove the color component
+ altogether) and 1 (leave it as is). Therefore, the
+ function of the Luminosity Adjustment Curve is to
+ lighten excessively dark colors rather than to darken
+ light colors. This control has no effect if Correct
+ Hue Only mode is used.
+
+ Blue Map
+ Cyan Map
+ Magenta Map
+ Yellow Map
+ Red Map
+
+ These curves control how the auxiliary red and blue
+ inks are used on the Epson Stylus Photo R800, Stylus
+ Photo R1800, and PictureMate family of printers.
+ These printers use auxiliary inks to achieve more
+ brilliance in the red and blue. Other printers in the
+ future may use other auxiliary channels, which will be
+ made available in similar fashion.
+
+ The vertical axis of each of these controls specifies
+ the amount of each ink that should be used to print
+ colors of that hue. These curves are used only to
+ generate color; any gray component is removed prior to
+ the color generation and added back later. For
+ example, it is possible to specify that a certain
+ shade of purple is printed using .2 red ink, .6
+ magenta ink, and .5 blue ink (hypothetically).
+
+
+----------------
+
+M) SPECIALIZED OUTPUT CONTROLS
+
+ These controls are used to modify the output in very
+ printer-specific ways. These options are all new to Gutenprint
+ 5.0.
+
+ Gloss Level Value
+
+ This control is provided on printers such as the Epson
+ Stylus Photo R800 and R1800 that offer a special gloss
+ enhancer to produce an even degree of gloss on glossy
+ papers regardless of the amount of ink used. On
+ certain glossy papers, areas with high ink coverage
+ are a lot glossier than areas with little ink coverage
+ (highlights); the gloss enhancer is basically a
+ transparent ink that increases the gloss of these
+ areas. This control specifies the desired total
+ amount of ink to be printed, including both the normal
+ color and black inks and the gloss enhancer. If the
+ amount of normal inks is less than this amount, gloss
+ enhancer is used to increase the total amount of ink
+ used.
+
+
+----------------
+
+N) TRANSITION CONTROLS
+
+ These controls adjust the level at which light inks (such as the
+ light cyan and magenta inks used on many "photo printers") are
+ used in place of the dark inks. The light inks are used to
+ produce a smoother texture (less speckling); the light cyan
+ droplets, for example, are individually much less visible than the
+ normal dark cyan droplets.
+
+ The ink substitution works by replacing a certain amount of ink by
+ a mixture of the light and dark inks. For example, the dark cyan
+ ink may be about 3 times as dark as the light cyan ink, so in
+ light areas the cyan may be replaced by 3 times as much light
+ cyan. However, this only works up to a certain point; beyond that
+ point, adding more light ink does not significantly increase the
+ darkness of the ink. These transition values adjust the limits at
+ which the ink substitution is done; the lower these limits are
+ set, the lighter the output at which dark ink is introduced.
+ Setting these values lower will generally yield more accurate
+ midtone colors at the expense of more speckling in the light
+ midtones and highlights. Generally these values need to be lower
+ on low-quality paper than on high quality glossy paper.
+
+ These options are all new to Gutenprint 5.0.

+O) FOOMATIC-ONLY OPTIONS
+
+ This control is available only when using the Foomatic interface.
+ It provides a collection of presets appropriate for various
+ printing tasks. It is similar in concept to (and provided the
+ inspiration for) the Print Quality and Image Type options provided
+ in Gutenprint.
