Canon 6700D bugs Gutenprint 5.2.10 fix ASAP

Hello, there is allot of bugs on Canon 6700D printer driver. Since the gutenprint at sourceforge is dead, I'm posting here. Perhaps somebody know how to fix this.

The printer prints OK only in "Plain paper" see for screenshots http://www.printerknowledge.com/threads/gutenprint-the-poor-mans-rip.9549/page-2#post-77610

The printer does not print in high resolution mode no matter what setting is selected. With one clogged nozzle I get lines is the print. Printer prints 2x faster than with original canon driver on photo papers. Please fix this.

As you write yourself, you are posting to the wrong project. You need to go ask whatever project is taking care of updating drivers for your printer. Even if not Gutenprint, I'm sure there must be some other project at least remotely maintaining these drivers (I tried to search a little, but I can't even find a Canon 6700D, there is a Canon iP6700D though, is it the same?).
This said, I see on their webpage that they had a release in May 2014; and even though they have very few commits, I still see they make a few commits a month. So it does not seem completely dead to me.

So I will suggest you go ask the project maintainers directly. There is nothing we can do here.
Thanks.

Yes the 6700D and iP6700D or Pixma 6700D is the same printer. I left ticket open at sourceforge maybe you are right they will see it. The printer is very good back from 2008 :)

I hope somebody fixes it as I'm not sure how to contact the developers. I never used sourceforgre

You are more likely to get an answer through sourceforge that through this list, though.
