[Openicc] Questions to ... Oyranos and Gutenprint

[Jan-Peter Homann]

Hello,
Fine to hear, that there is a central place for LCMS, which are the CM 
aware LINUX apps are using and there is also a mechanism in development, 
that - via Oyranos - a CM aware LINUX app. can get the information which 
monitor profile is active.

Now, a very intersting question is, if its possible to install for 
colormanagement to the printer with Gutenprint a comparable mechanism.
Would following workflow be possible.
- Defining printer settings in Gutenprint (printer, ink, paper, 
,inerization, rasterization...)
- assigning a printer profile to the setting
- If a printer setting is activated in Gutenprint, the printer profile 
will be communicated through oyranos
- The colormanagement for the printout is made by the application, but 
there is no need to setup manually the printer profile in the application

Regards
Jan-Peter
