we only have an old black and white office printer.

from time to time we want to print out images that are full  color or close it it.

then the printer wastes a lot of ink doing a dark background and incidentally obscuring much clarity.

is there a way to deal with this probably fairly common problem?

here is today's example:

here are two insects (blue argus and sympetrum sanguineum) treated in printing with two different grains

Hi

Trying to start with Python scripting and got problem with console crash. Trying both from saved file and entering script in console, when main() function is called console crashes, saying that (translated directly from my language so in details may be little bit different, but: "An error occurred in the plug-in: "python-console.py, The plug-in, by aborting due to an error, may have corrupted the internal state of GIMP. To be safe, it is recommended to save the images and restart the program." Tried different scripts, even with empty main function.
Tried on two computers, version 2.10.38, Windows 11 Pro

Dont think it is my computer. Am just having problem with one site atm. 
Cannot see the last 11 replies on a thread of mine from my computer. Am wondering if it  is also making the whole site slow for me. Saw all I missed on my phone.
I know it is not gimp related but was hoping someone here could help me with a solution.
I was advised to remove a 'hosts file # website name'  but don't want to do that unless I know it is safe to do so. 
Any one here use windows? and where would I find the host's file if it is ok.

How do I put a png over a gif I have without it changing? I've found stuff where gifs can be overlayed on still images, but not the other way around. I even once attempted putting the still image on each frame of the gif, but that caused the transparent colors to add on top of each other, since some of the frames are meant to combine.

Is it possible to see a histogram of all visible layers combined (and not only of the active layer). I want to tweak different layers and see what it does to the final result. If that is not possible, is there maybe a plugin that can do this ?
Thanks.

Hi all,

I am working on a macOS ventura 13.6.7, trying to link gimp 2.10 as my external editor onto rawtherapee 5.10. On rawtherapee, I've open preferences > gone to external editor and made the command as follows /Applications/GIMP.app/Contents/MacOS/gimp-console-2.10. 
   
However when I click the palette icon on rawtherapee,  a popup comes up saying rawtherapee quit unexpectedly. 
   

I've also used the following 3 GIMP profiles as per this article https://www.gimp.org/tutorials/GIMPProfile/ to see if it works, but it cannot start editor. I've also put my actual ID in the profile.
- /users/{your_id}/Library/GIMP/2.10/
- /users/{your_id}/Library/Application Support/GIMP/2.10/
- NSApplicationSupportDirectory/GIMP/2.10


I am wondering if anyone can help me with my command. Thank you!

I have a .png which is 3840 x 2160px and I want as much of that to fit into a 1400 x 1400 for a website.  Should I crop it or resize it?  I just need it centered with and as much of the image intact as possible.  Thanks
