Re: [Gimp-user] printing
2010/2/7 jon s. for...@gimpusers.com: Hi all, and thanks in advance for your help. I am a newbie with GIMP, and usually use it for light touch up of digital photos of artwork. I am running windows xp on a nice dell optiplex. I believe the os is up to date. Just upgrade to ..6.8. Gimp works fine, except that I cannot print! I open a line drawing, do file, print, and nothing happens. There must be some setup or plugin I am missing. The fix must be easy, but I am stumped. I would appreciate some help. Thanks, Jon Stivers For what it's worth, I have never been able to print from GIMP either. I have to save it to a normal image format, open it up in a normal image viewer and print it from there. -- Deniz Dogan ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user

I have a similar problem with a Konica Minolta 1300 that is set up on network (http port), which happens to be the default one in my system. My workaround, if I *really* need to prin from within GIMP: - in my system there is also PDFCreator installed - I set PDFCreator as the default printer *before* starting GIMP - do whatever in GIMP - print - PDFCreator - generating pdf - open the pdf and print to whatever printer In the above case, after the click on Print... but just when the printers dialog comes up I select the Konica Minolta printer, the dialog hangs and I have to close it by force, giving a GIMP message about the plug-in print.exe which has crashed, blah, blah.

Re: [Gimp-user] printing
jon s.: I, too, am using Windows XP (though not on a Dell), and upgraded to Gimp 2.6.8 after I posted my response. Printer is a Ricoh Aficio 610, connected as a network printer through a router, printing directly using the Windows network drivers supplied by Ricoh for the printer, and it works exactly as I expect with black and white line drawings and photographs. ns ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
Re: [Gimp-user] Need help: correcting exposures in time-lapse imagesets
Quoting kinata for...@gimpusers.com: Hi, my son and I are doing a science project in which we're measuring dye transport in plant leaves over time. Using a Canon Powershot A40 and Canon's RemoteCapture app to snap images every 60 seconds. Unfortunately, through RemoteCapture you can set film speed, but shutter speed remains in Auto mode. In order to digitally compare each image with the initial reference image (to determine the amount of dye absorbed), the exposures need to be the same each time. Is flash mode available in remote capture? If so, perhaps one could be used to obtain a consistent exposure (no AE, and the shutter speed effectively is determined by the flash). Is there a way to compensate for exposure time in a relatively accurate way, say, see each image as if it were shot in 1/20 sec? I wish I could use the CHDK package, but the A40 doesn't seem to be supported. Perhaps you could include a test pattern in the frame (ie, place a picture of a test pattern next to the plant) and be able to match exposure settings by adjusting the levels of the images such that the two test patterns match (if this works, it could likely be automated). ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
