If you can't print anything else, it doesn't help, although it *is* a photo printer, I suppose. > would like to do that with Gimp.

I use GIMP 2.2.8, and Debian, but I haven't even touched Gutenprint -- yet. As for the printer not working... Then again, does this help? http://www.linuxprinting.org/show_printer.cgi?recnum=Epson-Stylus_Photo_R1800 [Printer does not support PJL.] Umm... someone tell us, does Gutenprint or GIMP even touch PJL? If not, well... I have no clue. If it does... *shrugs* You're pretty much on your own. That said, if you have a version of Windows, the Windows build of GIMP will usually print on Windows' print system... but *shrugs* Now that I think about it, I think... is it even POSSIBLE to build a GIMP plugin without GIMP and GTK development libraries? Someone tell me the answer... ^^ Maybe try building GTK+, GIMP, and then Gutenprint from source, in that order. Use the latest versions stable version if you can (or feel free to try fiddling with a devel release, if you dare). Build dependencies or get the libxyz-dev(el) packages/rpms as necessary. Good luck. -- ~Mike - Just my two cents - No man is an island, and no man is unable. _______________________________________________ Gimp-user mailing list [email protected] http://lists.xcf.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
