Package: cups Version: 1.7.5-11 Severity: minor Tags: upstream Hi, I recently plugged a Canon Pixma MG2250 printer on a Debian desktop installation. The printer was automatically installed thanks to system-config-printer which, I believe, is just a GUI around CUPS. Problem is, the CUPS test page I printed at first was much too dark (the colored disk was very dark, and the Debian swirl was dark red, almost purple). Fortunately the workaround was quite simple: the "Color Model" setting in the "General" options tab was set to "RGB Color", whereas the "Ink Type" setting in the "Printer Features Common" tab was set to "CMYK Color" (with other possible settings being "CMY Color" and "Black", no "RGB" or similar). So my first (wild) guess was to set the "Color Model" to "CMYK" and luckily, it worked: the CUPS test page was then printed with the usual colors I remember from working printer setups in CUPS. So, please make the default "Color Model" setting in "General" tab match the "Ink Type" setting in "Printer Features Common" for this printer. Regards, -- Raphaël HalimiAttachment: signature.asc

It is unlikely that this request for an enhancement will be fulfilled by either upstream or Debian. Hence closing. Thank you for your report. Regards, Brian.
