 This could be a problem on the printing side, and not in XSane, so
 let's rule that out first.

Thanks for your suggestion. Indeed, you are right. I tried 0.98b-1 and
0.97-3. Both showed the same problem. Then I got aware that xsane prints
via 'lpr'. So I tried 'xpdf' which also prints via 'lpr' and it failed
in the same way. Then I tried lpr text.txt and surprise, surprise,
even this fails with duplicated size!

I usually print from another PC on that same printer. This was the
reason why I didn't notice the degradation in the print system. Printing
from the other PC still works as it should be. I checked it again.

So you can close or reject this bug or whatever seems appropriate. Or is
there a way that I can do it myself?
 
Regards,
Ingo

Bug#385266: xsane: duplicates print size on copy

2006-08-30 Thread Ingo Strüwing
Package: xsane
Version: 0.99+0.991-1
Severity: important


When trying to copy an A4 page, it is printed with duplicate size so
that just a half of the page is output. When setting the zoom factor to
0.5, the output size is about correct (same as the original), but
the page is shifted so that still just a half of the page is output. The
scan looks fine in the preview window. When scanning (save) and
printing with gimp the output is fine without any size/zoom adjustments
whatsoever.

So I guess the problem is on the print side. I am using a HP Laserjet 4L
with CUPS. Changing the resolution for grayscale didn't help (I
encountered this problem while scanning in grayscale).

Former versions of xsane worked very well in this combination.
