[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1385055] Re: HP Officejet Pro X476dw MFP prints in 300dpi
Hi Schlomo, Sorry for the duplicate post. I thought I had forgotten to hit the "Post Comment" button yesterday. In response to your post: there is no "upstream" bug, in this case. The HPLIP group uses Launchpad as well to triage bugs. So this bug report, in effect, IS the upstream bug since the "HPLIP" (in capital letters) package is associated with it. Regarding the other PPDs with similar problems, generally a separate bug report would be submitted for each PPD, since each file is related to a specific make and model of printer. Alternatively, if you are feeling energetic, :) and want to go through the whole hplip package and find all the lines that need to be corrected/added, you could add submit a bulk bug report with all the details, to help the programmers clear up this problem for everyone. :) But I know not everyone has the time to do this. Thanks for your help on clarifying this issue. Hopefully, they will soon fix the PPD for your printer. :) G -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to hplip in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1385055 Title: HP Officejet Pro X476dw MFP prints in 300dpi Status in HPLIP: New Status in hplip package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Running Ubuntu 14.04 running stock hplip 3.14.3 Printer HP Officejet Pro X476dw MFP hp-check -t output is attached Problem: Initially I noticed that printing documents with Hebrew fonts results in low quality with fuzzy lines.

Re: [Desktop-packages] [Bug 1385055] Re: HP Officejet Pro X476dw MFP prints in 300dpi
Thanks! Can you link here the upstream bug report and fix once it is there? What about the other PPDs that don't set a default resolution? I would suppose that they suffer from the same problem if the printer supports more than 300dpi.

Using Ubuntu 16.04. I originally reported it when I was using 14.04, but the PPD hasn't seen any changes in all those years and nobody from the HPLIP developers looked at this bug (AFAIK).

Re: [Desktop-packages] [Bug 1385055] Re: HP Officejet Pro X476dw MFP prints in 300dpi
Thanks. I checked the 3.18.7 PPDs and found out that the problem is still not fixed. The root issue is that the PPD does not define the DefaultResolution parameter which causes CUPS to use a default of 300dpi. So the problem is that the *DefaultResolution: 600x600dpi line is still missing from the PPD which I pointed out already at the beginning of this thread. It turns out that a lot of PPDs are missing this line: $ ( pwd ; zgrep -o DefaultResolution *ppd* | wc -l ; ls -l | wc -l ) ~/hplip-3.18.7/prnt/ps 256 339 As you can see, there are 339 PPD files in the prnt/ps directory and only 256 of them contain a DefaultResolution line. Probably the other ones also will have a similar bug if the printer supports more than the CUPS default of 300dpi I therefore kindly ask you to add the DefaultResolution line to the PPD. If you point me to a place where I can submit a Pull Request I will gladly do so. Unfortunately neither the Sourceforge nor the Launchpad project seem to contain the source code repo.

Hello Schlomo, Thank you for submitting this bug and reporting a problem with hplip. You made this bug report some time ago and Ubuntu and hplip have been updated since then. Could you confirm that this is no longer a problem and that we can close the ticket? If it is still a problem, are you still interested in finding a solution to this bug? If you are, could you let us know and, in the current version, could you run the following (only once): apport-collect 1385055 and upload the updated logs and and any other logs that are relevant for this particular issue.

The attached PDF looks very bad when printed in 300dpi and looks good when printed in 600dpi. Somehow this font makes the problem very visible, with latin fonts the difference in quality was less profound.

After some debugging I was able to trace this down to the fact that by default CUPS converts the print job to a 300dpi PS before giving it to the hp driver: D [24/Oct/2014:07:22:01 +0200] [Job 261] Printer make and model: HP HP Officejet Pro X576dw MFP D [24/Oct/2014:07:22:01 +0200] [Job 261] Running command line for pstops: pstops 261 schlomo hebrew-test.pdf 1 'finishings=3 media=iso_a4_210x297mm output-bin=face-down print-color-mode=color print-quality=4 sides=one-sided job-uuid=urn:uuid:c1da9224-d10b-3c2f-6a99-487121b8864c job-originating-host-name=localhost time-at-creation=1414128121 time-at-processing=1414128121 Duplex=None PageSize=A4' D [24/Oct/2014:07:22:01 +0200] [Job 261] No resolution information found in the PPD file.

It would be nice if the PPD could be fixed.
