#6 Ghostscript driver for Epson Stylus Color 670
Only 360dpi works. Printer just ejects papers in other modes.
Problem appears to be printed data after
"Transfer Raster image" command <1BH,69H, r, c, b, nL, nH, mL, mH, d1, d2, ..., dk>
Epson has explained this command in 'sc670.pdf'.
Printer setup seems to be correct. (I tested by appending raster data after initializing commands - works ok)
"Print Raster graphics" <1BH,2EH...> works.
Have to use model 660 now. It works.
I hope this will be fixed in the future.

The output (from the CVS repository version) certainly looks correct to me. You mention the reference to the command in sc670.pdf; do you see something wrong?
I think the manual has some bad information. I took a look at the specs on the Epson web site, and it appears that it's a 32/8 and 64/4 printer, rather than 48/6 and 144/2. Please try the latest version of print-escp2.c.
Several modes become functional by revising gdevstp-escp2.c
in section /* 25: Stylus Color 670 */
MODEL_VARIABLE_MULTI -> MODEL_VARIABLE_NORMAL
and
48, 8, 144, ... -> 32, 8, 64, ...
360 Softweave and high quality don't work, other modes do work.

You really don't want to change MODEL_VARIABLE_MULTI to MODEL_VARIABLE_NORMAL. However, the other change you made is correct and is probably all you need. Don't make the other change I suggested in my second email.
This bug is now corrected in cvs tree.
All the color resolutions work in Epson Stylus Color 670 and variable dot size works. Output of the printer is as high quality as it can be.
User sounds completely satisfied, I'm happy...
