From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:0.9.4) Gecko/20010913 Description of problem: The gif image named in the URL above, when read into xv, ee, or gimp, if printed full size will display only the cyan plane. The printer will make long pauses either during or after the cyan printing is done depending on which app generates the PostScript. If the image is shrunk to 75% size it prints just fine. I am finding this to be a fairly common failure mode for the MD1300 support. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.read file into ee, gimp, or xv 2.print 3.watch it fail Actual Results: Cyan only printout. Expected Results: Full color print out. Additional info: This is done in 4 bpp mode, but I think the 32bpp dither mode might also exhibit similar behavior.

In the interest of getting on with out lives, I agree, that we should close this bug. As I have said in other reports, it is my hope that in future, bugs like this will be able to be dealt with in a more timely manner. -Bill Cattey Linux Platform Coordinator at MIT and Red Hat stockholder
