It might be that your GIMP is including an old gimp-print plug-in from 4.2, but the larger package which includes all the printer drivers is Gutenprint. A little checking with dpkg -S, dpkg -L and aptitude search might solve that mystery if you're on Ubuntu as your signature suggests. (I'd check here for you, but I have gutenprint built from source and have probably overwritten some of the original files.) I think they're compatible (must be, if the distro installs them that way) but the experts who would know for sure aren't here; they're on the gimp-print/gutenprint devel list. https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/gimp-print-devel They'd also be the ones who would know whether or not a particular printer model is supported. Glance at the archives first (at that same url) to see if anyone has talked about your printer model recently. -- ...Akkana "Beginning GIMP: From Novice to Professional": http://gimpbook.com _______________________________________________ Gimp-user mailing list [email protected] https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
