Printing 6*4 on Epson TX700W, SLED11

Post by CraigMeads »

Have SLED11 and Epson TX700W printing fine with A4 printing.

If I select a photo to print, and 6*4 borderless, Epson Glossy paper etc, the print print on the 6*4 paper, but is scaled down to only about 2*1.5. I can't move the scaling slide bar any further to the right in Eye of Gnome, or Gimp to increase the size.

Any clues?

Thanks

Craig

I have managed to get it working. With F-Photo, Eye of Gnome and other such products, they don't talk correctly to Turboprint, and therefore don't pick up the right paper sizes.

Under GIMP however, there is a Turboprint print option, and apart from not having an option to select the tray, it works, and I can print borderless.

Not perfect, but better than nothing.

Hello,

thank you for the hint. I will try to reproduce (and fix, if possible) the problem with F-Photo (F-Spot?) and Eye of gnome.
