Printing from Gimp - Using win32 Application

Sun Oct 02, 2022 8:49 pm

GIMP Version: 2.10.32
Operating System: Windows
GIMP Experience: New User



I have downloaded the latest version of Gimp straight from their site and I am surprised to see it is printing from a Win32 Application. Does anyone know why? Im an experienced user but have never seen this before.

The reason is explained here: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gimp/-/issues/2053

We install 32-bit Twain plug-in, even on 64-bit GIMP, on purpose because most scanner only have a 32-bit TWAIN driver (so installing the 64-bit plug-in would not see your scanner).
