Just to update you on my situation, as per someone's recommendation above, I have been using 300dpi (or 600dpi, depending) Color, Black + Color Cartr. instead of relying on "Controlled by 'Printout Mode'". I have been having some success with this; at the very least I haven't noticed my color cartridges running dry at record paces.
I'm hoping that at some point in the future default will be "Color, Black + Color Cartr.", so that I won't have to manually select this every time. I have been eyeballing every CUPS update description since I reported this bug, and nothing seems to speak directly to it. Is this something that has been scheduled for and included with Jaunty? Thanks again for everything that you do. -- "Print black" does not use black ink cartridge https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/235399 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
