With the next Gutenprint package (now for testing on http://www.linux- foundation.org/~till/tmp/ubuntu/feisty/gutenprint/binary/) there will be two PPDs per printer in a standard installation. One is marked "(simple)" the other "(expert)". Both use Gutenprint and give the same output quality. The user can have all options and fine adjustments with the "(expert)" and less cluttered menues but still access to the full functionality of his printer with the "(simple)" file. Between these two there is not really a recommendation.
So I will close this bug. ** Changed in: gutenprint (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Fix Committed -- Driver list is empty by default https://launchpad.net/bugs/84947 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
