[Gimp-print-devel] Stylus Pro 7700/9700

[Robert K. <rl...@al...>]

It looks like these are very fast printers (720 nozzles per color).

There are two issues that need to be resolved to support these
printers:

1) They contain both photo black and matte black cartridges
   simultaneously.  That means that the esc i command needs to select
   something different for the two.  We need to know the correct code
   for matte black and photo black.  The R800/1800/1900 do something
   similar (using a subchannel code of 4 for photo black), but we
   should find out the correct code.

2) They are described as "10 channel" with 5 colors (2 channels per
   color).  This is similar to the B500DN, but I wouldn't expect a pro
   printer to actually require separate channels (since it does
   printer weave).

If someone has one of these printers, it would be useful to get output
from it.
