[Gimp-print-devel] 5.2.7

Here's what I have so far for 5.2.7.  Comments please.  I'd like to
get the release out in the next week or two if that's going to line up
(our last release was in August).

Gernot, how is the Canon stuff coming along?

Michael, is there anything outstanding for the dyesub driver?

Anything else people have in the pipeline?

       Epson Stylus Pro 4450 (EXPERIMENTAL)

       Epson Stylus Pro 7890 (EXPERIMENTAL)

       Epson Stylus Pro 9890 (EXPERIMENTAL)

     - Dye sublimation printers:

       Kodak EasyShare G600 Printer Dock
       Kodak PD-4000
       Kodak PD-6000
       Kodak Photo Printer
       Kodak Photo Printer 500
       Kodak Printer Dock Plus
       Kodak Printer Dock Plus S3

  2) Add additional photo modes to Canon inkjet printers.

  3) Correct page size limit for EPSON Stylus Pro 7600, 7800, 7880,
     9600, 9800, and 9880 (previously these printers had overly
     restrictive page limits).

  4) Correct printing to the EPSON Stylus NX200, NX215, SX200, SX205,
     SX210, and SX215.

  5) Corrected basic printer definitions of EPSON Stylus Pro 3800,
     3880, 7800, and 9800.

  6) Corrected media definitions and improve printing quality for
     EPSON Stylus Pro 3800, 3880, 4800, 4880, 7800, 7880, 9800, 9880,
     11800, and 11880.  This will result in substantial changes in
     output; if this is an issue, please use the EPSON Stylus Pro 7600
     or 9600 driver as appropriate.  There are new printer definitions
     named "EPSON Stylus Pro 4800/4880 Back Compatible" and "EPSON
     Stylus Pro 11800/11880 Back Compatible" available for people with
     existing tuned workflows for those printers.

     There are no back compatibility modes for the EPSON Stylus Pro
     3800 and 3880 as those printers were previously marked
     experimental with a note that their output was expected to change
     substantially.

  7) Allow EPSON Stylus Pro 3800 and 3880 to select matte and photo
     black ink automatically based on ink set choice (it is no longer
     necessary to set this on the front panel).

  8) Improved reliability of escputil.
  
  9) Corrected color matching profile used for Mac OS X 10.5.x.
     sRGB will now be used instead of Generic RGB.  Users with work-
     flows dependant on the previously used Generic RGB can select
     this color profile in the print window by using ColorSync to
     choose the profile rather than using VendorMatching.

 10) CUPS PPD files now correctly identify which options affect
     color, for the Common Printer Dialog.

 11) A build problem on Solaris has been fixed.
