>From the release announcement:
Welcome to Gutenprint 5.2.5, a stable release of Gutenprint 5.2.  This
release has bug fixes, support for additional printers, and a few new
features over 5.2.4.  

Gutenprint will run on any reasonably modern computer running Linux,
Macintosh OS X (10.3 or above), Solaris, or any other UNIX-like
operating system.  If you plan to compile this package from source,
you will also need an ANSI C compiler, such as gcc (recommended).  A
compiler is not required if you are installing a pre-compiled package.  

A package for Macintosh OS X will follow shortly.  We advise Macintosh
users to wait for that package rather than attempt to compile from
source.

   2) Add Device ID strings for printers for which they are known.  

   3) Correctly handle installable options in PPD files in PostScript
      driver.  

   4) Correctly handle certain PPD files that previously caused the
      PostScript driver (and hence the Enhanced Print plugin) to
      crash.  

   5) Changed a number of laser printers by Gestetner, Infotec,
      Lanier, NRG, Ricoh, Savin, and Xerox to be large format
      (A3/tabloid instead of A4/letter).  Please inform us at
      gimp-print-devel-5NWGOfrQmneRv+LV9MX5uipxlwaOVQ5f at public.gmane.org if you encounter other
      printers that should be changed.  

   6) Make the QualityEnhancement option (available in the Epson
      driver for certain printers) function correctly.  

   7) Alow Epson printers using Claria inks to select quadtone or
      hextone output.  

   9) Corrected escputil status output for Epson Artisan and TX/SX
      7xx/8xx printer families and for a number of the R-series
      printers.  

   10) Add support for EA5 envelope (paper size).  

   11) Fixed the margins for the HP LaserJet 2100 and 2100M with A4
      paper.  It is likely that other printers will need similar
      correction.  

   12) Update the German translation.

Paul.
