Lucid Beta 1 - Printer test page should display new Ubuntu logo

Definitly, a lot of the artwork needs to be updated.

Closing for ghostscript and cups, the outdated logo is in the /usr/share/system-config-printer/testpage*.ps files which come as part of the system-config-printer package. Leaving also the ubuntu-artwork task open, as the actual fix needs to be done by an artworker. I do not have the needed knowledge to fix this. Please attach the fixed test pages here and I will update the system-config-printer package.

Note that the ubuntu logo suggested is not the final logo.

No need to have several tasks open here.

Ken, can you please stay the assignee of this bug, even if it's blocked
on the finalization of the logo. I doubt Ivanka will track bugs assigned
to her and that puts this at risk of being forgotten before the release.

Mark

Mark, Ken, and Ivanka I hope you don't mind that I took the liberty of reassigning the bug to Ken as Mark requested. Thanks for taking notice of this bug.

Cheers,
John

Oops, time to read the comments in advance of any action on the bug.

Ken, should we assign anyone to the bug from the 'system-config-printer' package?

Just to make sure they are aware that this needs to make it for the Lucid release.

Does anyone have an idea of what kind of time table we are looking at here?

It seems to me that this should land before the Release Candidate.

John, the problem is that the actual fix has to be done by an artwork person, what has to be fixed here is replacing the logo in the files

/usr/share/system-config-printer/testpage-a4.ps
/usr/share/system-config-printer/testpage-letter.ps

As soon as someone has done this, I will replace the two files in the system-config-printer package.

Till,

Thanks for your response. As you have offered to make the fix in the system-config-printer package - I will make you the assignee for that package.

I will make contact with the artwork team in the meantime.

Cheers,
John

Seem a simple fix, just need the artwork

Marcus, thank you for the file, but unfortunately, it is not an EPS file but a PDF file:

$ file ubuntu_black_pms.eps
ubuntu_black_pms.eps: PDF document, version 1.5

Can you attach a real EPS file? Thanks.

It is looking like this will not land in Beta 2. I suppose we are looking at the Release Candidate.

If there is anything I can do to help this along - please let me know.

Updated asset attached

Iain Farrell, also thanks for supplying a file, but yours is also of PDF format, what I need to update the test pages is an EPS file. If you do not have the software to generate EPS files you could supply as an alternative complete test pages in PDF format. There should be at least test pages for A4 and Letter format.

I have tried to convert your file, at first to PostScript using the "pdftops" utility of Poppler and then "ps2epsi" of Ghostscript, but the resulting file, inserted at the correct place in the test page, does not show in the test page.

So please provide me a real EPS file or modified or new test pages. Thank you.

An eps saved in an earlier format (->save as copy in AI CS4 and older versions -> 3.0 should fix this problem.

As Kenneth Wimer described this is the "EPS file for use in printer page" opened with Illustrator CS4 and "Save a Copy..."

Thank you very much, Kenneth and John this version of the EPS file is correct now. I have prepared an updated system-config-printer package now and will upload it after the Beta-2 freeze.

This bug was fixed in the package system-config-printer - 1.2.0+20100408-0ubuntu1

---------------
system-config-printer (1.2.0+20100408-0ubuntu1) lucid; urgency=low

  [ Till Kamppeter ]
  * New upstream release
     o GIT master snapshot from 08 April 2010
     o For the last update from upstream we accidentally downloaded the
       master branch from GIT and not 1.1.x, so that upstream version from
       Lucid Feature Freeze is 1.1.91 in reality and not 1.1.17 as advertized.
       To fix the bugs of 1.1.91 (an unstable test release) we go now forward
       to 1.2.0 + bug fixes + translation updates.
     o No feature additions expected.
     o This release fixes especially LP: #557199 and LP: #552398
     o Possibly more bugs fixed.
     o Translations updated.
  * debian/patches/53_fix-async-ipp-traceback.patch,
    debian/patches/70_more-async-traceback-fixes.patch,
    debian/patches/73_finally-fixed-race-condition-in-asyncipp.patch: Removed
    patches for upstream fixes.
  * debian/patches/10_menu_entries.patch,
    debian/patches/55_silence_printerdriversinstaller_errors.patch:
    Regenerated to work with new upstream code.
  * debian/system-config-printer-common.install: Added new check-device-ids.py
    file (debug tool, not used by the rest of system-config-printer).
  * debian/system-config-printer-gnome.install: Added man pages.
  * debian/local/testpage-a4.ps, debian/local/testpage-letter.ps: Replaced
    Ubuntu logo by the current one (LP: #542975).
  * debian/patches/84_cache-also-device-id-in-network-printer-search.patch:
    When doing a network printer search on a given IP, cache not only the
    make-and-model string but also the device ID for subsequent connection
    types.
  * debian/patches/86_fill-lpd-queue-list.patch: When probing an IP address
    whether it is an LPD printer and which the valid queue names are, the
    list of valid queue names did not get filled.
  * debian/patches/88_physicaldevice-get-make-model-also-from-makeandmodel.patch:
    Let make and model for a network device also be determined by the
    make-and-model string and not only the device ID (which is often missing
    for detected network printers).
  * debian/patches/90_physicaldevice-clean-socket-uris.patch: When several
    detected network printers are identified as one physical device, remove
    the default port 9100 from socket URIs, to avoid saving entries with
    duplicate URIs.
  * debian/patches/92_do-not-search-driver-for-remote-cups-queues-with-driver.patch:
    If a queue to be set up with "ipp://..." URI points to a remote CUPS queue
    which has already a PPD on the server, we do not need to (and should not)
    search for a PPD/driver to set up locally. Now really recognize such queues
    and suppress driver configuration.
  * debian/patches/57_backend-integration-dnssd-bluetooth.patch: Let Bluetooth
    printers get searched together with network printers, as the search takes
    longer. So USB and parallel printers and also network printer search
    methods appear nearly instantly. In the listing of network printers let
    not only IP addresses but also DNS-SD names appear.

I just tested this and I still get the older test page.

Fabián Rodríguez, make sure you have at least system-config-printer 1.2.0+20100408-0ubuntu1.

I did before posting. I checked this in 3 different updated systems.

Works for me.

Odd. I upgraded yet another system and it works - I had tested versions on the other systems too. Sorry for the annoyance!

Attached: PDF version of printing test page

Works for me with 'system-config-printer' included on Release Candidate ISO
