15.3. Printer Settings
For photo output on most color inkjets, you should use the most
highly interlaced (and slowest) print mode; otherwise solid
regions may have banding or weak colors. Generally with
Ghostscript this is what will happen when you pick the highest
resolution. With Postscript printers, you may need to add a
snippet to the prologue based on the settings available in the PPD
file. The Gimp's PPD support doesn't include (printer-specific)
print quality settings, but I added one in an ugly way for my own
use; contact me if you'd like that. If you use PDQ or CUPS, you
can easily control all the printer settings you need. VA Linux'slibppd and the GPR front-end can also add these
options for Postscript printers.
