Hi, I own an HP 3420. CUPS running well, afaik. The pilot used is HPIJS, with Edgy Eft updated from a fresh new Dapper Drake.
When I print a document with OpenOffice, it's ok. But with other softwares, it's always a mess. Two examples: - trying to print a JPG photograph with GThumb, I get a whole A4 sheet painted with black ink (that's a real nightmare!)... - trying to print pages from the web, using Firefox, or an e-mail received in Thunderbird, I end up with the text printed in a very small size, in something like 60% of the surface of the sheet, and some parts of the text is not printed at all (but the specified size of the sheet is A4) Finally, I found a workaround: First, I print the source into a pdf file, then I can open this pdf file with evince and print it. It works well, but it's so boring! These troubles with my printer are a real drawback for me. I used to print a lot of documents under Windows with that same printer and it went smoothly. I'm even considerint re-installing a Windows partition on my PC just in order to be able to print my documents and images flawlessly :-( I can provide technical informations if you give me commands and advices in order to do so. -- ghostscript needs patch for KRGB printing https://launchpad.net/bugs/23099 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
