What does 'rpm -q gutenprint-plugin' say? gutenprint-plugin-5.0.0.99.1-3.fc7 Will be out of town until June 10th. Regads In the 'Output' tab of the Print... dialog, is "Color" selected or "Grayscale"? Color was and is selected. Can you attach the PPD for the queue you are using? It will be in the /etc/cups/ppd/ directory. Thanks. Tim, I am out of town until June 10th, thus I have no access to the box. As soon as I return I will send you a copy of the PPD. Please note that the "Preview Window" does not display in color. I have FC6 installed in the same box. In FC6, the program has no problems. Regards No problem; just attach the PPD when you get back. Thanks. My prints were much too dark after installing F7. In Gimp's print menu, I chose the "Output" tab, then clicked "Adjust output...". In the next dialog, I clicked "Set Defaults" to reset the color settings to default. The print quality is allright again now. Maybe this will do the trick for you, too?

Back in town finally I had a chance to look at the Gimp problem. With F-7 final release available I installed it. Interesting with F-7 Gimp would not even show "Print..." in the File drop-down menu. The installation did not install the "print" plug-in (/usr/lib/gimp/2.0/plug-ins/print). Copying the FC-6 print plug-in to F-7 solved this problem. Gimp prints properly in F-7. None of the possible print plug-in / Officejet_J5700_series.ppd permutations of the files from FC-6, F-7test4 and F-7 made F-7 test 4 print in color. As per your request I created attachments for the .ppd's as well as the plug-in files (Comments 10 through 13). I have preceded the file names with their corresponding source information within square brackets. I will try a second install of F-7 to see if it makes any difference. Thanks for your help Regards, Manny Don't copy anything from FC-6. You just need to install the gutenprint-plugin package; see comment #1. I am going to issue a foomatic test update shortly. It will add 'OfficeJet J5700' to the list of HP printers when you go to change the driver for the queue. In fact, just removing the queue and re-connecting the printer should set up a queue for you. You'll see an update message here when the test update is ready. foomatic-3.0.2-47.1.fc7 has been pushed to the Fedora 7 testing repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report. Tim, will install another F-7 in a separate partition for experimenting with the Test Updates etc. Will keep you informed. Thanks, Manny Have you had a chance to try out the test update yet? foomatic-3.0.2-47.1.fc7 has been pushed to the Fedora 7 stable repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report. Tim, foomatic-3.0.2-47.1.fc7 solved the problem. It works well. Thanks for your help. Job well done. Manny |
