* Changes from 5.2.3
1) New printers supported in this release:
Canon PIXMA iX4000
Canon SELPHY CP-520
EPSON Stylus Photo R2880
EPSON Stylus DX4000
2) Printing to the Epson PM-D600 has been corrected.
3) Printing using the manual sheet guide on the Epson Stylus Photo
R2400 has been corrected.
4) Printing to the EPSON Artisan 700 and 800 and Stylus Photo
P/TX700 and 800 series printers has been corrected. Among other
issues, it should now be possible to print reliably using the
photo tray.
5) The names of the following Epson printers have been corrected:
EPSON Stylus Photo PX700W
EPSON Stylus Photo TX700W
EPSON Stylus Photo PX800FW
EPSON Stylus Photo TX800FW
6) The names of various Ricoh and Ricoh-based printers have been
corrected to match Ricoh's model names and the OpenPrinting
database.
7) The EPSON inkjet utility, escputil, now correctly prints the
color name for low ink warnings.
8) Printing resolution names have been fixed in non-English locales
in CUPS PPD files.
9) A Russian translation has been added. The Danish and Italian
translations have been updated.
10) Support has been added for L-size paper with tear-off borders.
11) The ordering of inks in quadtone ink sets on Epson printers has
been corrected. In addition, support has been added for MIS
quadtone and 6 tone inks.
12) It is now possible to adjust the ink parameters for quadtone
inks in CUPS. Previously, these parameters could only be
adjusted in the enhanced Print plugin for GIMP and other native
Gutenprint applications.
13) Updating CUPS PPD files is now faster.
were moved or renamed.
This was for some from 2008 and 2009 and one from 2001.
Also I noticed that a CHANGES entry was wrong as said "Renamed"
when should have said "Moved" (lua-OSBF) because PKGBASE stayed the
same.
This changes the buildlink3.mk files to use an include guard for the
recursive include. The use of BUILDLINK_DEPTH, BUILDLINK_DEPENDS,
BUILDLINK_PACKAGES and BUILDLINK_ORDER is handled by a single new
variable BUILDLINK_TREE. Each buildlink3.mk file adds a pair of
enter/exit marker, which can be used to reconstruct the tree and
to determine first level includes. Avoiding := for large variables
(BUILDLINK_ORDER) speeds up parse time as += has linear complexity.
The include guard reduces system time by avoiding reading files over and
over again. For complex packages this reduces both %user and %sys time to
half of the former time.
* Changes from 5.2.2
1) CUPS PPD files in non-English locales are now generated
correctly when the CUPS driver interface is used (with CUPS 1.2
and above).
2) Epson inkjet printers that support duplex printing now use less
restrictive margins (allowing use of more of the page) when
duplex printing is not used.
3) Printing to the following Epson printers has been corrected:
EPSON Artisan 700
EPSON Artisan 800
EPSON BX300F
EPSON EP-801A
EPSON EP-901A
EPSON EP-901F
EPSON ME 300
EPSON ME Office 360
EPSON PX-401A
EPSON Stylus NX100
EPSON Stylus NX105
EPSON Stylus Photo PX700FW
EPSON Stylus Photo PX800FW
EPSON Stylus Photo TX700W
EPSON Stylus Photo TX800W
EPSON Stylus S20
EPSON Stylus SX100
EPSON Stylus SX105
EPSON Stylus T20
EPSON Stylus TX100
EPSON Stylus TX101
EPSON Stylus TX102
EPSON Stylus TX103
EPSON Stylus TX105
EPSON Stylus TX106
EPSON Stylus TX109
EPSON TX300F
These printers should all be fully functional, but may be
further tuned in the future.
4) Duplex printing has been enabled on the Epson Stylus RX680,
RX685, RX690, PM-A940, and PM-T960. Support for these printers
is still considered experimental.
5) Support has been added for the Canon MULTIPASS MP220.
6) Preliminary support has been added for the Canon PIXMA iP4600.
Gutenprint is a package of high quality printer drivers for Linux,
BSD, Solaris, IRIX, and other UNIX-alike operating systems. In many
cases, these drivers rival or exceed the OEM drivers in quality and
functionality. Our goal is to produce the highest possible output
quality from all supported printers. To that end, we have done
extensive work on screening algorithms, color generation, and printer
feature utilization. We are continuing our work in all of these areas
to produce ever higher quality results, particularly on the
ubiquitous, inexpensive inkjet printers that are nonetheless capable
of nearly photographic output quality. Earlier versions of Gutenprint
were called gimp-print.
This package contains the base library, the Epson utility escputil,
cups support, and a gimp2 plugin.
