Hi All
Ive only been using Gimp for a few weeks so Im a relative noob.
I am trying to print to a networked printer managed centrally by Paper-Cut. When I try to print an .xcf file it gets put on hold awaiting authentication. There is no way to resume printing and authenticate. (Which is the usual process)
When exporting the same file to .png and printing there is no problem. It uses my prev' saved authentication credentials and it prints out fine.
Q1. Is it the file type and Paper Cut doesn't know what to do with it?
Q2. Is there any print resolution advantage in printing directly from Gimp instead of .png?
Cheers
Rob
