Sample PostScript and EPS files
After installing Gimp-Print and configuring your inkjet printer in Print Center according to the instructions in Technique 30, you should be able to drop any .eps or .ps file into the Print window. If you don’t have such a file handy, try one of these. These two graphics (identical, but in different formats) are a simple spiral shape. If the graphics print out smoothly, without jagged curves, you have configured Gimp-Print successfully. (These files should decompress automatically when you download them; if they still have the “.tar.gz” extensions, drop them on StuffIt Expander to decompress them before using them with Print Center.)
