Gimp-Print Description

Gutenprint, formerly named GIMP-Print, is a suite of printer drivers that may be used with most common UNIX print spooling systems, including CUPS, lpr, LPRng, or others. These drivers provide high quality printing for UNIX (including Macintosh OS X 10.2, 10.3, 10.4, and 10.5) and Linux systems that in many cases equal or Exceed proprietary vendor-supplied drivers in quality and functionality, and can be used for demanding printing tasks requiring flexibility and high quality. This software package includes an enhanced Print plug-in for GIMP that replaces the plug-in packaged with GIMP, and Ghostscript and CUPS drivers, as well as Foomatic data supporting the Ghostscript driver. Gutenprint has been renamed in order to clearly distinguish it from GIMP. While this package started out as the original Print plugin for GIMP, it has expanded into a collection of general purpose printer drivers, and the new, enhanced Print plugin for GIMP is now only a small part of the package. Furthermore, the name Gutenprint recognizes Johannes Gutenberg, the inventor of the movable type printing press. Finally, the word "guten" means "good" in German. Gutenprint Currently supports about 700 printer models.
