iianm, darktable merely hands off the print job to your printer handler, cups, hplip, .... and *you* tell the print handler how you want the printer to put your image to paper. you can send your image to your print handler as a black and white or grey scale image or tell your printer to print it w/o color. googling for "epson abw" indicates it is a driver provided by epson. do you have that driver installed or is it even available for linux, I didn't look. -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA @ptilopteri http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member facebook/ptilopteri Photos: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery2 Registered Linux User #207535 Photos: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/piwigo @ http://linuxcounter.net ____________________________________________________________________________ darktable user mailing list to unsubscribe send a mail to darktable-user+unsubscr...@lists.darktable.org
