Print using Windows installed printers[Enhancement]:

Open Jan-Snijder opened this issue 1 year ago • 4 comments

What changes would you like?

Is it possible to use the windows installed printer when printing ? As it is now printing is done using the win32 app but when going to print the printer setting are not used for a canon photo capable printer with 2 cassettes.

Any extra information?

@Jan-Snijder This is a enhancement to use MS Windows printer drivers in GIMP snap from WSL?

I guess so, just not shure

If this is really related to WSL, I think that this is extremely hard (to not say impossible) to implement

Ok 😁

Hi there! We recently merged a big overhaul of the GIMP snap, keeping us up to date with the latest 3.0 feature release.

The snap has been rebased on core24, has migrated to a much improved GNOME extension & content snap, and is now using many more components from the Ubuntu archive. Given either the version stated in this issue, or the last time the issue was updated, it's highly likely that the issue is resolved or is no longer relevant to the supported version of GIMP.

As part of getting the snap and the repo back on track, and to help us prioritise ongoing issues, I'm working through all issues that refer to older versions or haven't been updated in a while.

I'm closing this issue for now, but please comment if the issue still persists, and I'll reopen and prioritise getting it fixed, or at least get you an update!
