Find CUPS lpstat in /usr/pkg (not quite right, but better). 1) New printers supported in this release: * Epson inkjet printers: EPSON PictureMate 100 EPSON PictureMate 210 (Corrected) EPSON PictureMate 240 (Corrected) EPSON PictureMate 250 (Corrected) EPSON PictureMate 260 EPSON PictureMate 270 EPSON PictureMate 280 (Corrected) EPSON PictureMate 290 EPSON PictureMate 500 EPSON PictureMate 2005 EPSON PictureMate Dash EPSON PictureMate Flash (Corrected) EPSON PictureMate Pal (Corrected) EPSON PictureMate Snap (Corrected) EPSON E 150 (Corrected) EPSON E 300 EPSON E 520 EPSON E 500 EPSON E 720 EPSON E 700 EPSON Stylus D92 EPSON Stylus DX4400 EPSON Stylus DX4450 EPSON Stylus DX7000F EPSON Stylus DX7400 EPSON Stylus DX7450 EPSON Stylus DX8400 EPSON Stylus DX8450 EPSON Stylus Photo R280 EPSON Stylus Photo R285 EPSON Stylus Photo RX585 EPSON Stylus Photo RX680 EPSON Stylus Photo RX685 (Note that a number of the PictureMate printers that were previously included generated grossly incorrect output. Not all of the PictureMate printers have been fully tuned at this point.) * Canon inkjet printers: Canon PIXMA MP520 (#1872394) Canon PIXMA iP6000D 2) Printing for the Canon PIXMA iP4500 has been fixed (#1834153). 3) Printing near the bottom of the page has been improved for many modern Epson inkjet printers. In addition, we have determined that most of these printers can print with consistent high quality at 2880x2880 and 5760x2880 DPI. Therefore, these resolutions will be used for Ultra Photo and Best qualities respectively on these printers. Printers affected include: * Stylus Photo R800, R1800, PM-G820 * Stylus Photo R2400 * All printers using Claria ink 4) Full bleed printing now works properly on the Epson Stylus Photo R2400. 5) The Epson Stylus C120 now allows printing at 2880x2880 and 5760x2880. However, print quality near the bottom of the page may be poor, and these settings are therefore not used for Ultra Photo and Best quality. 5) The ink drop sizes on the Epson Stylus Photo printers using Claria ink have been retuned, yielding improved quality at lower resolutions. 6) A problem with determining the system printer queues in the GIMP plugin on certain systems using languages other than English has been fixed. 7) Envelope paper sizes are now offered in both portrait and landscape form factor, as some printers expect envelopes to be fed long edge first while some expect them to be fed short edge first. 8) PCL laser printers now offer paper trays with adjustable guides. Many laser printers use adjustable guides for manual feed of papers narrower than letter size. 9) The GIMP plugin now offers reset buttons for individual settings, so it is possible to reset a single setting to its default without resetting all settings. 9) Various new controls and settings have been added to assist in printer calibration. While the tools for using these controls are not yet created, these tools will assist in calibrating printers in the future. * The Epson driver now offers additional controls for adjusting the relationship between light and dark ink: + The Value parameters (such as Light Cyan Value) specify the relative darkness of the light vs. dark inks. + The Cutoff parameters now specify the point at which the darker ink is first used, relative to the value of the light ink. + The Scale parameters now specify the amount of light ink used (essentially the density of the light ink). This is the same as the parameters previously called Cutoff. * The Epson driver now exposes as defaults the actual GCR settings used for the printer, paper, and ink combination in use. * The Epson driver now allows passing low level settings such as printer base resolution, ink drop size selection, and relative ink drop size as parameters. The ink drop size can be accessed in the GIMP plugin, while the base resolution and ink drop size selection can only be used via the test pattern generator or other application that allows setting integer parameters. * Two new dither algorithms, Segmented and Segmented New, have been added. These are not intended for normal use, and will normally behave like Ordered and Ordered New. However, if Raw color correction is selected and a printer with multiple drop sizes is used, the range of input will be divided up such that the high order bits will select the drop size to be used and the lower bits will specify the amount of ink. High order bits of 0 indicate that all drop sizes should be used. For example, if a printer offers 3 drop sizes (2 bits), the range of 0-16383 will print all drop sizes normally (with the range of 0-16383 being scaled to 0-65535), 16384-32767 will use the small drop size, and so forth. This is intended to assist in tuning ink drop sizes. * A new parameter allowing dumping out of color correction state (lookup tables, GCR data, curves, etc.) has been added, and is accessible in the GIMP plugin. At present, this data cannot be used directly, but it is intended that in the future this mechanism be used to allow calibration information to be saved and restored. |
