In fact, the installation seemed successful because the test print looked basically alright. It just did not fill the A4 format. There are indeed two problems. First, the conversion from jpeg to ps generates (vertical) rectangles from squares. This looks like a bug in apsfilter. Secondly, the colors, or rather the resolution, and the size are incorrect. The reason for this seems to be the lack of the correct driver in gs. gimp-print WITH_CUPS (which I have used earlier this year on a smaller FreeBSD4.9 machine) gave good results as far as I remember. I did not compare them with the iBook though. Next step after the beach... Bye Harald Weis -- FreeBSD 6.1-RELEASE #0: Sun May 7 04:42:56 UTC 2006
