I mentioned previously that gimp and print assistant did not print the
image as shown in gimp. It was redder and darker. I went back to
ML2010.2 and colors match. When I reinstalled ML I was asked if I
wanted to install a proprietary driver for my video card. I said yes.
I don't remember seeing this in mageia. Would that make a difference
in my print quality?
It should not make any difference to use a proprietary driver or not (but
you can of course install one on Mageia if you want.
Regarding printing maybe it's related to a misconfiguration of the
printer (like a wrong color profile used )
Regards,
I am strictly a user. Any printer setup has to be program related. I use
both MCC > printer and HP device manager to check it. I know nothing of
color profiles. The install program needs to do what is necessary to
make it work properly. At this point I am forced to stay with ML until I
have at least finished my printing. One other related printer problem in
Mageia is that when I turned the printer off the program tries to reboot
and freezes up. I have to either remove the usb plug or close my open
programs.
Thanks, Gary
P.S. I noticed that the printed pictures in ML are slightly lighter that
shown in Gimp. Is there some type of program that calibrates printer
with monitor?
Thanks, Gary
