Printing a picture in landscape mode, with GIMP. Picture has lakes, sky, trees, rooftops, mountains, etc.
In Gimp, some of the dark trees, and the dark areas of shrubbery around a path, have big open white blotches. After doing everything I know to do in GIMP, I opened OOo, inserted the pictures into a frame, and printed the picture. The big white spots are missing, and the picture actually looks pretty good. This tells me (I think) that the problem is not the printer (Epson Styus 1400) or the picture (I flattened it, thinking maybe something about the layers might cause that problem.) In Gimp 2.6, Suse 12, I'm setting Image Quality high, Color Precision best, Print Quality high. Oh, and these are not random white spots. Each print (wasting lots of ink and paper here) has the big white spots in the same places -- the same trees, the same shrubbery, same shapes to the white blotches. Any ideas? -- Helen Etters
