If I declare the printer on the Mac as an Epson DX-4800, then I get correct colors again.
(DX-7000F is not available with this old version of CUPS on the macs.) What really puzzles me is that it used to work with "Generic Postscript Printer" on the Macs for a very long time. That's why I did not really look for a solution on that side. Again, it stopped working after an upgrade on the _Linux_ side that implied cups and other printing packages. Also, I don't understand the principle: isn't a cups server supposed to publish a printer as some generic PostScript device, doing all the real conversions to the printer's output format? I had been explained that this is the main difference with Windows printing system, where you need to have the drivers installed on all the printing clients. Sorry if my questions look naive. -- Print quality degraded when printing from a Mac onto a CUPS server under Ubuntu https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/511550 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
