[Gimp-user] Epson Stylus Photo R1800 printer support
Hi, I am running Fedora core 3, with Gimp 2.2.6 I would like to print to my Epson Stylus Photo R1800 from the Gimp. I installed Gutenprint 5.0.0.rc1 and it seemed to go in OK. The printer driver went into place, since before the install there was no entry for that printer in the KDE printer installation tool, but afterwards it was there. Moreover, I spent a lot of time with Gutenprint, uninstalling and reinstalling it several times, and there didn't appear to be any problems. Problem is, the installation did not provide the Gimp with a new print plugin (and yes, I did run configure with the --with-gimp2 option), and I even tried uninstalling and reinstalling the Gimp. I also tried manually placing what I thought was the Gutenprint plugin manually into the Gimp plugin directory, but that just left it unable to print at all. I've been on the gimp-print epson forum about this, but they seem to have lost interest in me. I really am out of things to try. If there is anyone out there who has installed Gutenprint 5.0.0.rc1 and has a trick to share, great. Failing that, if anyone has the plugin, is there anyway I could get my hands on it, or a tarball of the whole Gimp distribution (with the Gutenberg plugin)? I really want to get this printer going, and I know of no other way to do it. Thanks very much for any help anyone can offer. -- --alex http://alexfeldman.org ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.xcf.berkeley.edu http://lists.xcf.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user

Otherwise, I have no clue. Well, I can give it a try. As I'm sure you know, that involves several other upgrades, some of which have caused me trouble. The Gutenprint README sayes it works with any Gimp 2.x, and even Gimp 1.2, so it ought to work. Does anyone out there have it working?
