Hi,

PostScript, since eventually, rendering PS to the printer's raster

corrections again. So eventually they are applied twice. But obviously,
Yes, that is a bit odd - it probably shouldn't. To be honest, though,
PostScript output isn't really what the print plugin's intended for. If
a printer is supported by Gutenprint, then it's better to let the plugin
generate the raw print data. The main reason for this is that
Gutenprint's options have outgrown the PPD format!
as you explained, they can be turned off (unfortunately I cannot find
this control in my installed version - probably too old).
Even with the current (beta) versions, it's not available until you
explicitly ask for manual control.
All the best,
