TurboPrint and Salix OS

I have been using TurboPrint on my netbook, which has had Xubuntu 11.04 installed on it. I am considering switching to Salix OS, which is a Slackware based distro, and I am wondering how I can install TurboPrint when it is only available as an .rpm or .deb file.

You can add the printer manually: "Printer is"="standard printer" "Choose port"="Other" "Other port"="bjnp://<ip-address>". It works :) Is there any reason that the printer IP address should change, and how do you make it static? I have ru...

You can check that with the terminal command (from a shell window): ping 192.168.1.103 Press Ctrl+C after some seconds to stop the output. You can see if the printer replies or if the...

Canon PIXMA iP5200R AWOL on wireless home network.

I am using the turboprint_2.16-2 driver on an Ubuntu Lucid system. My Canon PIXMA iP5200R printer prints when connected with a USB cable, and also works with a wireless connection from my wife's Windows XP laptop. Unfortunately, it refuses to print from a wireless connection with TurboPrint on my Ub...

TurboPrint solution for Linux on PPC?

I am disappointed with OS X Leopard performance on my G5 1.8 Ghz. Mac and rather than re-installing OS X Tiger, I have installed Ubuntu 8.10 Intrepid Ibex. I was hoping to find a TurboPrint solution for the PPC architecture, but was disappointed to find that there is no TurboPrint solution for the P...
