Hi all,
I am evaluating gimp on linux as a replacement for Photoshop on Windows. I am
currently using Photoshop/Windows primarily for the color management
capabilities. I have tried printing from gimp to my Epson Stylus Photo 1280,
with horrible results--the colors are off by a significant amount. System
specifics below. Does anyone out there use gimp for serious printing? If
so, please let me know your workflow and how you achieve color fidelity.
Thanks in advance!
Paul
Running:
Kubuntu Breezy
gimp 2.2.8
gimp-print 4.2.7
Epson Stylus Photo 1280

Hi,
I've had much the same problem with Gimp 2.2.4 and the Epson Stylus
Photo 2100 running under Linux Mandrake LE2005.
However, while waiting for a proper colour management solution to arrive
in gimp/gutenprint, in the interim I've been able to get a pretty good
match between monitor and printer output using Turboprint
(http://www.turboprint.de/english.html).
The only thing is that it costs (30 euros, 39 dollars) for the full
capabilities.
Hope that may help.
Doug
