   I just tried again with random Floyd Steinberg using
   brightness=80, contrast=100,rgb=(100,100,100),
   saturation=1.0, density=1.0, gamma=1.0
   and it looked much better than yesterday.
   The only problems were too much ink used in dark regions
   and not so beutiful dithering.

I know how to tune the amount of black ink, if that's the problem.
Now that I've fixed the dark/light ink ratio, maybe it won't speckle
as badly.

   Hint to the guy that writes the GUI code: If you select f.ex. papersize
   or printer driver (setup button) and then select an new printer
   you loose all the values you've selected and have to go through
   everything again. Minor, but annoying, detail.

As Karl explained, that's an intentional feature.  In order for it to
really work well, though, we need the ability to define virtual
printers, such that the choice of a "printer" in the main dialog is
really the choice of a printer profile.

   There also doesn't allways seem to be much correspondance between
   where on the paper you place the image in the gui and where it gets
   placed on paper.

Off by about 1/2 inch, right?
