Hi Rich2005,
thank you for your reply.
It helps me understanding, i deleted the setup-file. No improve.
Like i wrote, at page-setup in Gimp it don't take my inputs, i can choose 'Landscape' but it is always 'Portrait' selected when i open this function again. (the margins are remembered, but the print size in the Image-Menue also has no effect anymore)
Printing FineArt or photos on such a high quality and big format printer is always a interactive procedure. After looking at the preview in printerdriver you have to come back often to play with parameters befor the final print. Not only the layout, for example you change the colors, the ICC-profiles, the exposure or the black-level of the picture.
Now i have always first save/export the picture to another file-format, open it in another software, check the preview of printing there, go back to Gimp doing changes, export again ...
... very sad that i can't do this directly in Gimp (like before with Canon printer). And my new printer is only new for me, it is in the market for years. I think this happens to all Epson FineArt Printers !
Printing is important for 'Image-Manipulating-Software', isnt it ?
I hope Gimp comes back to a professional level soon.
Regards, Bert
