[Bug 23099] Re: ghostscript needs patch for KRGB printing

[Greguti]

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.
