Hello,
I am testing turboprint 2.07-1 under Ubuntu 8.10 (French).
My printer is a Canon Pixma MP620.
Installation went fine.
I have got a problem with paper sizes when using The Gimp (2.6.3) and GimpTurboprint (v0.1.6). Some paper formats give right paper sizes, others give wrong paper sizes.
For example format A4 give right paper sizes, as does format 4x6â borderless (width : 10,16, height : 15,24),
but format Canon 4x6â give width 11,92 and height 21,59.
Same problems with formats I create myself in Turboprint control center. I created a format A6 : 10.50 x 14.85 which give in Gimp turboprint A6 11,92 x 21,59.
All paper formats work fine in openoffoce.
Thanks for any help.
Best regards

gimp turboprint paper size malfunction
I confirm and have reproduced this wrong behavior with Gimp 2.6 and Ubuntu 9.04. If I print anywhere (digikam or cups printing) with a new paper size, turboprint plugin is not able to change paper size to another one.
The only solution that I have found is to print with some other application with new paper size and then print in Gimp with the same size. The problem is in the turboprint plugin, I guess.

Hello,
there is actually a issue with Ubuntu 9.04 and the TurboPrint GIMP print plugin. This will be fixed in the next TurboPrint release (in the next days). Meanwhile you can print with GIMP and TurboPrint using the standard "print.." dialog of GIMP.
EDIT: TurboPrint 2.10 with a new print plugin for GIMP is now available for download on www.turboprint.info
