Each bug description has a number, possibly prefixed with "*" for those bugs for which there is at present no fix. The first line of each description contains the date on which and the pcl3 version for which the problem was reported, followed by a short summary and possibly a longer description. Bugs which have been fixed have a line denoting the pcl3 version with the fix. ******************************************************************************* 1 (2000-10-26, pcl3 3.0): Duplex printing on the DJ 970C does not work. The command gs -q -sDEVICE=pcl3 -sSubdevice=unspec -r600x600 -sOutputFile=/dev/lp0 -sDuplexCapability=oppositeLeadingEdge -dDuplex=true applied to a two-page document generates a file which is printed on two sheets. FIXED in 3.0.2 (the call needs different options, though; many thanks to Dawei W. Dong for an extensive set of experiments). 2 (2000-10-27, pcl3 3.0): Using "-sSubdevice" leads to printing at 300 ppi. FIXED in 3.0.1. 3 (2001-01-12, pcl3 3.0.2): The "restore" in the following code leads to a "rangecheck" error in .installpagedevice (where it says "This should never happen!" in gs_setpd.ps :-) ): save a4 restore This is due to a problem with the "NumCopies" page device parameter which is caused by cooperating bugs in gs and pcl3. FIXED in 3.1. 4 (2001-07-05, pcl3 3.2): On a platform where "unsigned long" has more bits than "int", using Floyd-Steinberg error diffusion gives wrong colours for high-intensity yellow. FIXED in 3.3.
