I followed three paths: * First I followed the hints on http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=341621&highlight=splix and installed the Samsung Unified Print Driver * I tried Foomatic/foo2qpdl * I tried SPL-C
When I issued a apt-get install splix I was very astonished to see it already installed. As such I don't know wheather SPL-C is the splix driver or the Samsung Unified Print Driver. When using SPL-C and printig large documents a process rastertosamsung is playing together with gs (and eating almost 50% of my dual cores). I observerd: * The color print quality of Foomatic/foo2qpdl is aceptable; The are some artefacts, but at least color gradients print correctly; However pure colors have some "stripes" in filled areas, which all-in-all result in a bad quality for eg. photos. I did not tried ICM profiles but by default a color correction would be neccessary as all colors have a somewhat wrong tint. * SPL-C comes out very good! There's not much to say, very brilliant colors, sensible CMYK-RGB values and no artefacts of any kind. A mild color correction would be good for RGB grayscales (it's a light bluish gray) but otherwise perfect (* pxlcolor [PCL-XL] is pointless to try with this printer as I consider the firmware buggy) Please tell me if by using SPL-C I use Splix or the Samsung Unified Print Driver. -- pxlcolor problem when printing characters after color change https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/505423 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
