Aah, ok. I didn't try that. Thank you.
Just for curiosity, and to whomever has the answer, why was that change
made?

I replied to you offlist.  Check your spam folder in case my message
got dropped.  I'm the project lead for Gutenprint.

The bottom line solution is to install Gutenprint 5.2.14, which
properly supports most color laser printers.

Everyone,

I apologize for posting this again, it looks like I am not getting any
takers on this problem.  

If any of you can direct me as to where to look for a solution I would
greatly appreciate it.  gimp has been a wonderful tool for me to be
able to create pcl macros for hp type printers, and I have many forms
that I store as pcl macros of a document that are then merge with data
to on the fly; all of these are in black and white.  We purchased some
color printers, and now I would like to create 'color' forms stored as
macro commands in hp pcl5 printers.  I would surely appreciate anyone's
help in making this happen.

Subject: [Gimp-user] [Fwd: [CentOS] Gutenprint - Gimp - Color pcl
files]
Date: Thu, 11 Oct 2018 18:18:25 -0500

Everyone,

I am trying to create a 'color' *.pcl from a pdf file with the use of
gimp and the gutenprint gimp plugin.   I have done this easily to
create a black & white *.pcl file, but have not found a way to create a
file that contains the 'color' commands for an HP laser printer.

I am running Centos 7.5 with all of the latest updates.  gutenprint-
5.2.9-18.el7.x86_64 is the current version in the Centos repositories

While using the gutenprint plugin within gimp I am allowed to select
from a list of HP color printers :

HP Color LaserJet 2500
HP Color LaserJet 4500
HP Color LaserJet 4550
HP Color LaserJet 4600
HP Color LaserJet 5
HP Color LaserJet 5000
HP Color LaserJet 5500
HP Color LaserJet 8550GM

But when I use any of these I am not allowed to select 'Color' on the
output tab.

I have tried to use other drivers like 'HP DesignJet 450C'  and am able
to select color options without a problem and to produce a color *.pcl
file, but the file created obviously does not work on a hp color laser
printer.

I tried installing gutenprint 5.3.1 from https://sourceforge.net/projec
ts/gimp-print/files/gutenprint-5.3/5.3.1/ , and things seem to go well,
but I have little experience with the process, and after the
installation and reboot there were no differences with the use of the
HP Color LaserJet drivers.

I would like to be able to create a color *.pcl file for an HP Laser
printer; if any of you have suggestions as to how to do this with gimp
or even cups I would sure appreciate your help.  I originally posted
this note on the Centos User's list, but got no response.  After
thinking about things I really should have posted it here.

Thank you ahead of time for your help

Perhaps xdg-open is a good alternative to a hard coded browser.
Xdg-open opens a URL in the user's preferred browser:

Here is a bash script that will take an image file and open a link in
your browser to the openstreetmap.com site at that location.

It requires that the "exiftool" utility be installed, which you can
install e.g. on debian-based systems with:

*sudo apt-get install libimage-exiftool-perl*

Put the following in a file (preferably in a location that is in your
executable path), call it something like "locatepic".

*#!/bin/bash**
**sensible-browser `exiftool -c "%.6f" $1 | grep "GPS Position" | sed

Many thanks to all that helped me with possible solutions, especially  
Casey Connor.

Many thanks, Casey.

I have elobrated his method a bit coming up with (calling it  
ShowImageLocation)


#!/bin/bash
qutebrowser `exiftool -c "%.6f" $1 | grep "GPS Position" | \

qutebrowser is a lightweight browser on Linux (e.g. Gentoo). One can  
use any other browser, as well.


I love the 'geeqie' image viewer. Luckily is has a very simple plugin  
mechanism (Edit-Configure Plugins).
You can just add a new plugin by entering the full patch of the bash  
script above (ShowImageLocation)


Now, when viewing my photographs I just press the right mouse button  
and select Plugins->ShowImageLocation
This pops up the browser (here qutebrowser) - or reuses it when it is  
open -  with the exact location on Openstreetmap

where hits photograph was taken.

I do love open source since it shows more than one solution in most  
cases.


Many thanks to all, again
Helmut

I do my selection with the rectangle selection tool (shortcut R).

How is this supposed to be done?
I searched the web but I didn't find anything that actually worked.


It is done like before... However, in 2.10, you don't have a true 
selection until you have "commited" it in the tool, so you cannot just 
use "drag-rectangle, Ctr-C" as you did in 2.8. You have to do 
"drag-rectangle,[enter],Ctr-C" or "drag-rectangle,double-click inside 
rectangle, Ctrl-C".
