HP PhotoSmart 8400 Foomatic/hpijs kernel-2.6.35.12-88.fc14.x86_64 When printing on this printer the colours come out somewhat misty. When same images are printed on Windows the colours look perfect. Changing the saturation for the printer from 100 to 200 corrects the colour perception.
Please attach the PPD file from /etc/cups/ppd

Erik: there is no "saturation" option for this printer. Did you attach the correct PPD file?

(In reply to comment #3) > Erik: there is no "saturation" option for this printer. Did you attach the > correct PPD file? This is strange. Yes, I did opload the correct file. As an added information I have now oploaded the Settings and the Job Options (part of) windows, so you can see where the saturation is changed. Hope this helps.
Oh, I see, thanks for clarifying it.
If you use the hpcups driver instead, does that give better results? (From the dialog shown in comment #4, click 'Change...' next to 'Make and Model:'.)

Slightly better, but hpcups is slooooooooooooooow. 4min 15sec to print an A4 page where hpijs.ppd took 40sec only. So hpcups is not a viable solution.
This message is a notice that Fedora 14 is now at end of life. Fedora has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 14. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At this time, all open bugs with a Fedora 'version' of '14' have been closed as WONTFIX. (Please note: Our normal process is to give advanced warning of this occurring, but we forgot to do that. A thousand apologies.) Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, feel free to reopen this bug and simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were unable to fix it before Fedora 14 reached end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged to click on "Clone This Bug" (top right of this page) and open it against that version of Fedora. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
