[Kde-nonlinux] Poor Photo Printing from kword

[Gerard Seibert]

I have KDE installed on a FreeBSD 5.4 machine. My printer is connected
to a WinXP machine via USB. The printer is a Canon S630.

I can print from within KDE fine with one exception. Pictures, when
inserted into kprint documents do not print correctly. In fact, they
barely print at all. Just a vary light hint of the actual picture is
printed. When printing from MS Office on the WinXP machine, the color
output is perfect.

I have Googled and found what is suppose to be the proper driver for
this printer. I used Apsfilter to set up the printcap file. I have tried
different resolutions, etc., but nothing has corrected this problem.
What else could I try to do to rectify this situation?

Ciao
