Hi list.
I've got an HP PSC 2175 all-in-one printer. It's automatically detected/setup by kudzu and system-config-printer.
The only problem is that, in GIMP, it's configured by default as a Postscript printer. The result, when I try to print, is a very long sequel of pages full of ascii codes... Not quite pretty.
Finally, I found out that I could setup my printer through GIMP by choosing a printer model (other than Postscript). The problem here is that the printer list is different from the list in system-config- printer, and my printer doesn't show up in the list.
Now, selecting a different model from mine results in bad quality printing, but at least it prints something...
So, my questions are: - Isn't possible to have kudzu/system-config-printer automatically setup GIMP's printer as well (not default to postscript) ? - Why is GIMP's printers list different (and shorter) than system- config-printer's list ? And which model should I choose when I have an HP PSC 2175 printer ?
Thanks in advance for your help.

Take '-oraw' out from the command line in 'Setup'. This is filed as a bug upstream already and I think it's been addressed for gimp-print-5.

Oh yes, you're right. And, more over, the output is of perfect quality now :)
Thank you very much !
