[Gimp-print-devel] Epson Test Results

[Karl H. K. <kh...@kh...>]

I've done some testing this afternoon and was able to get some
images from my printer (STC740), unfurtunately all the "interesting"
modes are not working. Here's a table of my findings:

So it looks like all the softweaving modes are not working, with some
printer versions the microweaving is also not working. There are
however some that will work in 360 and 720 Microweave mode.=20

Can somebody make some sense out of this?
