Branch: CURRENT, Version: 5.2.7nb3, Package name: gutenprint-lib-5.2.7nb3, Maintainer: gdt

Gutenprint is a package of high quality printer drivers for Linux,
BSD, Solaris, IRIX, and other UNIX-alike operating systems. In many
cases, these drivers rival or exceed the OEM drivers in quality and
functionality. Our goal is to produce the highest possible output
quality from all supported printers. To that end, we have done
extensive work on screening algorithms, color generation, and printer
feature utilization. We are continuing our work in all of these areas
to produce ever higher quality results, particularly on the
ubiquitous, inexpensive inkjet printers that are nonetheless capable
of nearly photographic output quality. Earlier versions of Gutenprint
were called gimp-print.

This package contains the base library, the Epson utility escputil,
cups support, and a gimp2 plugin.

Log message:
Update to 5.2.7.  Notable changes from 5.2.6 (see release announcement
for full details):

  1) New printers supported in this release:

     - Canon inkjet printers (many):

     - Epson inkjet printers (many):

     - Dye sublimation printers:

       Kodak EasyShare G600 Printer Dock
       Kodak PD-4000
       Kodak PD-6000
       Kodak Photo Printer
       Kodak Photo Printer 500
       Kodak Printer Dock Plus
       Kodak Printer Dock Plus S3

  2) Corrected color matching profile used for Mac OS X 10.5.x.
     sRGB will now be used instead of Generic RGB.  Users with work-
     flows dependant on the previously used Generic RGB can select
     this color profile in the print window by using ColorSync to
     choose the profile rather than using VendorMatching.

  9) Corrected base density for Photo Paper on printers using Claria
     ink (use 20% less ink).  The default results in heavy ink
     puddling in some cases.

 12) A problem whereby certain malformed PPD files would cause the
     PostScript driver to crash has been fixed.  In addition, the
     PostScript driver now runs considerably faster.
