[Gimp-user] Canon 6700D bugs Gutenprint 5.2.10 fix ASAP

2014-12-21 Thread smilem
Hello, there is allot of bugs on Canon 6700D printer driver.
Since the gutenprint at sourceforge is dead, I'm posting here. Perhaps somebody
know how to fix this.

The printer prints OK only in Plain paper see for screenshots
http://www.printerknowledge.com/threads/gutenprint-the-poor-mans-rip.9549/page-2#post-77610

The printer does not print in high resolution mode no matter what setting is
selected. With one clogged nozzle I get lines is the print. Printer prints 2x
faster than with original canon driver on photo papers. Please fix this.

[Gimp-user] Text Problem in 2.8.14

2014-12-21 Thread willderrness
I upgraded and cannot make the text work - a layer appears and I can see the
text in the layer but it will not appear in the text box on my image.  It worked
in earlier versions - please help as I am making XMAS cards - thanks in
advance... Will

As you write yourself, you are posting to the wrong project. You need
to go ask whatever project is taking care of updating drivers for your
printer. Even if not Gutenprint, I'm sure there must be some other
project at least remotely maintaining these drivers (I tried to search
a little, but I can't even find a Canon 6700D, there is a Canon
iP6700D though, is it the same?).
This said, I see on their webpage that they had a release in May 2014;
and even though they have very few commits, I still see they make a
few commits a month. So it does not seem completely dead to me.

So I will suggest you go ask the project maintainers directly. There
is nothing we can do here.
Thanks.

Yes the 6700D and iP6700D or Pixma 6700D is the same printer. I left ticket open
at sourceforge maybe you are right they will see it. The printer is very good
back from 2008 :)

I hope somebody fixes it as I'm not sure how to contact the developers. I never
used sourceforgre

I'm not sure what you mean by I can see the text in the layer.
Are you saying you can see the text where it is the default name
of the layer in the layers dialog (usually in a separate window 
to the right of the image window)? 

Check to be sure your foreground color is different from the background
layer over which you are creating the text.

When you click to insert a text layer, that layer is inserted above
whatever the currently active layer is.  If you want the text on top
of everything, make sure the active layer is the upper most one (the
top one in the layers dialog) before you activate the text tool and
click to insert text.  Alternately, check to be sure there are no 
other layers on top of the text layer.

Gary
