NO IDEA WHAT PACKAGE THIS IS: I just chose "cups" because it's related
to printing
- open an image in the Image Viewer
- do image/print
- go to the "image settings" tab
- try to amplify the image
=> YOU CAN'T!!!!!
The maximum is always 100%. Why? That's stupid. For MOST images moreover (any
image that was not scanned), there is no sensible notion of a physical size
(the dpi resolution is completely arbitrary), so the notion of 100% is totally
random.
Not being able to increase size to more than 100% is almost as huge as not
being able to print. It's among the most nonsense limits I've ever seen.
Maybe it's somewhere else, perhaps in "advanced", but it should be
possible from this very tab. Wher you can reduce size, you must also be
able to increase it.
