Harishankar, Thanks for your report. This is a frustrating bug that has been reported upstream over two years ago and is costing people real money, but there is little Debian can do to fix. I have added your report to the upstream report, but please feel free to add any additional comments to the upstream report at launchpad. https://bugs.launchpad.net//hplip/+bug/235399 Mark ---------- Forwarded Message ---------- Subject: [Pkg-hpijs-devel] Bug#591212: [hplip-cups] Printing in colour mode does not use black cartridge on HP PSC 1315 multifunction printer Date: Sunday 01 August 2010, 15:59:30 From: Harishankar <v.harishan...@gmail.com> To: sub...@bugs.debian.org Package: hplip-cups Version: 3.10.5-4 Severity: important --- Please enter the report below this line. --- I am using a HP PSC 1315 multifunction printer. I am aware that this is a LIDIL printer which doesn't have advanced features including automatic colour mapping in firmware. While printing in Linux using the HPLIP-CUPS driver printer does not automatically use the black cartridge to print black when printing in "normal color" or "draft color" mode and so even black text is printed as blue-grey instead of pure black since it uses only the colour cartridge. I have seen this same problem also affect the old HPIJS driver when used in CUPS. Is there anything you can do to solve this problem as it is very annoying to have to print everything in greyscale? --- System information. --- Architecture: amd64 Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-3-amd64 Debian Release: squeeze/sid 500 testing security.debian.org 500 testing http.us.debian.org 500 testing ftp.tw.debian.org 500 testing deb.opera.com --- Package information. --- Depends (Version) | Installed ==================================-+-============== libc6 (>= 2.2.5) | 2.11.2-2 libcups2 (>= 1.4.0) | 1.4.4-1 libcupsimage2 (>= 1.4.0) | 1.4.4-1 libgcc1 (>= 1:4.1.1) | 1:4.4.4-7 libhpmud0 | 3.10.5-4 libjpeg62 (>= 6b1) | 6b1-1 libssl0.9.8 (>= 0.9.8m-1) | 0.9.8o-1 libstdc++6 (>= 4.1.1) | 4.4.4-7 ghostscript-cups | 8.71~dfsg2-3 cups (>= 1.4.0) | 1.4.4-1 OR cupsddk | cups | 1.4.4-1 cups-client | 1.4.4-1 Package's Recommends field is empty.
