Hi team,
I just detected an error in the translation of the two thermo print methods into German language:
In file https://github.com/apple/cups/blob/master/locale/cups_en.po is defined:

...
3316 msgid "Direct Thermal Media"
3317 msgstr "Direct Thermal Media"
...
4790 msgid "Thermal Transfer Media"
4791 msgstr "Thermal Transfer Media"
...

The translation in https://github.com/apple/cups/blob/master/locale/cups_de.po it is translated

...
3170 msgid "Direct Thermal Media"
3171 msgstr "Direct Thermotransfermedia"
...
4644 msgid "Thermal Transfer Media"
4645 msgstr "Thermotransferpapier"
...

I propose to translate

  • Direct Thermal Media with Thermodirektdruck or Thermodirektdruckmedium
  • Thermal Transfer Media with Thermotransferdruck or Thermotransferdruckmedium

Reason:

  • The translation in line 3171 ...de.po Direct Thermotransfermedia does indicate "transfer" - which is wrong.
  • The translation in line 4645 of ...de.po Thermotransferpapier does only cover paper, not other types of media like PVC, Vinyl, ...

Thank you very much,
Marc

note this is not the development branch for cups. see openprinting.org where these translations are in the reviev/commit queue.
