#6983: cleanup printer prefrences / UI ehnacements. -------------------------------+------------------------- Reporter: stargatefan | Owner: laplace Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: R1 Component: Drivers/Printers | Version: R1/alpha2 Resolution: | Keywords: Blocked By: | Has a Patch: 0 Platform: All | Blocking: -------------------------------+------------------------- Comment (by laplace): '''Removal of native printer drivers''' I am the first to remove them, however that needs an objective investigation of the pros and cons. Since I don't have a printer anymore that is supported by a native driver, I cannot do that. Until the results are available, at least I won't remove them. For example the native drivers should be faster and at least for b/w printing the quality should be on par. The Gutenprint driver should offer more configuration options for fine tuning, but everything else is (almost) identical, as the native drivers and Gutenprint are based on the same (inofficial) Haiku printer driver framework (libprint). '''Relabeling the setup dialog and changing of transport add-on names (USB, LPR) ''' Yes, please provide suggestions/illustrations. I wanted them for a long time. BTW can you try not to indent the text in the description this way, it makes it hard to read and it doesn't make sense to me. -- Ticket URL: <http://dev.haiku-os.org/ticket/6983#comment:2> Haiku <http://dev.haiku-os.org> Haiku - the operating system.
