hello Robert,
From my point of view, the print spooler (like e.g. CUPS in Mac OSX) is
part of the OS.
Question to the Gutenprint team:
How much work would it be to implement in Gutenprint the possibility to
print a control slug containing the described meta-information for the
colormanagement applied to the printing data.
I don't quite understand exactly what this control slug would consist
of. Do you expect it to be embedded in the printer output (in which
case it would have to be done in a way that's compatible with the
particular printer), in the CUPS log file (in which case it wouldn't
be that difficult -- as long as CUPS passed it in in the first place),
or somewhere else?
Do You think it is possible to implement in CUPS the meta-data concept ?
I can't say. You'd need to ask Mike Sweet (he may be subscribed to
the list).
