Hiho,
I can confirm #13 regarding to the quality-settings. By using the
testpage-function of CUPSthe colors appear as follows:
cyan -> pink (like magenta but lighter and/or with less saturation)
magenta → brown
yellow → white
black → black
red → green (only a little bit lighter than the correct green)
green → only the thin bounding circle (but in cyan)
blue → dark blue, near to dark purple
the circle with 10 grayscale pieces → only a half circle with 5 gray pieces
(the lightest one is lighter than the lightest one of the correct circle and
the bounding circle is also missing)
I have also tested the normal quality option with the “hp-
color_laserjet_3600.ppd” file of the hplip-3.12.4.tar.gz from the hplip
project on sourceforge.net by using CUPS-function to specify a ppd file
manually (thus, still using hplip 3.12.2 of the ubuntu 12.04 packages).
This leads to the same behaviour (normal quality provides a faulty
result, best quality provides a good result).
I also printed the test page as a pdf and compared an Ubuntu-best-
Printout with a Windows-standard-Printout and could not see any
differences in saturation excepting a tiny little bit darker black-level
on the ubuntu-printout. For this reason I think that there won’t be a
big waste of toner by using best quality setting.
