I am stillhaving this issue with my HP Deskjet D2360. For the hpijs PPD the problem is that the default "Quality" setting for Color PrintoutModes is CMY instead of CMYK. I am really pissed that this issue still hasn't been addressed. Is anyone even working on this? I'm trying to patch it on OpenSuse but I can get my head around the way things work as far as generating PPDs. I could just change this for my printer model but that won't help many people. I can't understand the hpcups version of the PPD, it's practically written in a different language. Why does each printer have two PPDs? Shouldn't we just have ONE that's not broken instead of two for each printer? I submitted bug 707082 about this issue and it's been COMPLETELEY IGNORED. This is a huge bug, why is no one fixing this?
The offending lines in (hp-deskjet_d2300_series-hpijs.ppd) look like this: *FoomaticRIPOptionSetting PrintoutMode=Draft: "Quality=300DraftColorCM&& Y" *End *FoomaticRIPOptionSetting PrintoutMode=Draft.Gray: "Quality=300DraftGr&& ayscaleK" *End *FoomaticRIPOptionSetting PrintoutMode=Normal: "Quality=300ColorCMY" *FoomaticRIPOptionSetting PrintoutMode=Normal.Gray: "Quality=300Graysc&& aleK" *End *FoomaticRIPOptionSetting PrintoutMode=High: "Quality=600ColorCMY" *FoomaticRIPOptionSetting PrintoutMode=High.Gray: "Quality=600Grayscal&& eK" When they ought to look like this *FoomaticRIPOptionSetting PrintoutMode=Draft: "Quality=300DraftColorCM&& YK" *End *FoomaticRIPOptionSetting PrintoutMode=Draft.Gray: "Quality=300DraftGr&& ayscaleK" *End *FoomaticRIPOptionSetting PrintoutMode=Normal: "Quality=300ColorCMYK" *FoomaticRIPOptionSetting PrintoutMode=Normal.Gray: "Quality=300Graysc&& aleK" *End *FoomaticRIPOptionSetting PrintoutMode=High: "Quality=600ColorCMYK" *FoomaticRIPOptionSetting PrintoutMode=High.Gray: "Quality=600Grayscal&& eK" -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/235399 Title: "Print black" does not use black ink cartridge To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/hplip/+bug/235399/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
