Dear all,

hold your horses, I'll first try to get the newest hplip - I'm wondering why PCLinux (final) is shipped with this old version,

I'll get back as soon as possible,

Regards,
Martin

> A reasonable would be an option to the digikam/printwizard dialog to set a custom resolution. 


Resolution (by now) is useless in printwizard, dpi are not used yet...

Krinter interface as far as i understood cannot make much for customizing resolution, and always if
i understood correctly driver settings override them. I haven't find a way yet to get "non standard"
info from kprinter, I mean ppd files and drivers can give more options like photo paper quality, 
paper resolution, bordless printing. They are all present in kprinter dialog box, but i haven't found
a standard way to get them, think of page layout for instance, A4 is A4 for any printers, photo
paper (15x10 cm for instance) is not...
QT and KDE should "standardize" that first I believe, and disable if not given by drivers.... imo 
of course.
