Bug Description
My Canon S9000 wide-format photo printer works fine with this paper in windows or TurboPrint.
With standard Gutenprint driver bjc-s9000, image is extremely dark and grainy. See attached scan versus original in linked album: http://
I've tried changing the following driver settings with no significant difference noted in IQ:
- Color Model RGB vs CYMK
- Paper type photo vs glossy photo paper vs "photo paper plus glossy"
- Ink type CYMK vs "Photo CcMmYK Color".
Other notes:
- Gutenprint v5.2.11.
- Unmodified PPD
- `StpPPDLocation: "/usr/share/
