Hi, I have a HP PSC 1510 and Kubuntu 7.04. I have a problem to print google maps, I have a different render between the screen and the printer with Konqueror and Firefox browser. I think that it's a bug with the printer driver. A screenshot of a map : http://launchpadlibrarian.net/8785973/map%20screenshot.png The printed paper : http://launchpadlibrarian.net/8785979/kscan_0049.jpeg The path isn't present and the arrow doesn't have a transparent background. You can see my bug report with more informations : https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+bug/125468 Thanks you very much for your response. |

Because of the transparency issue: Is the original map file a PDF? Even the missing path seems to be a transparency issue because http://launchpadlibrarian.net/8785973/map%20screenshot.png shows that either the path or the streets are transparent. If the original map is a PDF, it seems to be no problem in the HPIJS driver but more likely in the CUPS /usr/lib/cups/filter/pdftops filter which may not support newer PDF versions which allow transparencies. But strictly speaking it is even no problem of pdftops but of the PDF itself (i.e. the software which makes the PDF) because a PDF which is meant for reliable printing should be in cmpliance to the PDF/X standard, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PDF/X To work around possible PDF transparency issues (and whatever else nice new PDF features), print into a PostScript file from your browser (usually just print into a file - the result is usually PostScript) and then print this PostScript file.

Hi, Thanks you very much for your informations. The map is not a pdf document, is a html document. I have printed in the file the result with Firefox, the ps file has the same problem that the printed version (see my attachment). The bug appears only when an arrow appears on the map. Apparently, it isn't a bug with hpijs. If I understand the problem, it's a bug into CUPS, isn't it ? I want to publish a bug report to the project that generates this bug.

Your attached PostScript file prints well for me (i.e. with paths and arrows) using openSUSE 10.2 with CUPS 1.2.7 on my LaserJet 1220 (a PostScript/PCL5e printer) via its internal PostScript interpreter (using "lp -o raw file.ps"), via the HPLIP PostScript PPD "HP LaserJet 1220 Postscript (recommended)", via the HPIJS driver PPD "HP LaserJet 1220 Foomatic/hpijs" and on my Officejet 7210 (a PCL3 "DJGenericVIP" class printer) via the HPIJS driver PPD "HP OfficeJet 7200 Foomatic/hpijs (recommended)". I assume it is also no bug in CUPS (at least not in CUPS 1.2.7). Perhaps it is a bug in your Linux distribution?

Your command "lp -o raw file.ps" doesn't work, I have the PS source code, not the PS file itself. I have tested the PS render with GS-GPL and GS-ESP, I have the same problem (not paths). I have a Kubuntu 7.04 with gs-esp 8.15.4 and cups 1.2.8. Thanks you very much for your return, I know now that it's a bug with my distribution. I will signal this at launchpad.
