TurboPrint & PrintFab

Thank you for posting this answer. You can check if PrintFab is in the list of startup programs in the System Settings, section "Startup":


The entry is "ZEDOnet Printjob Monitor", we may change this to "Printfab Preview" in a future release to make it clearer.

Hello ktenney,

an update does not extend the number of licensed computers. The update license keyfile replaces your previous keyfile, a standard license normally only convers an installation on one computer.

Hello thalo52, do I understand your statement correct that the Preview Windows does not appear at all but the document is directly printed even if the Preview option is selected in the print dialog? Probably it will help us to have a look at the log files of PrintFab. You can find them with the spec...

Thank you for this information. Generally the built-in profiles of TurboPrint should produce good results, but in some cases the color accuracy can be improved by creating color profiles for your printer (there can be a variation in color reproduction between printers of the same model). Users who d...

Hello, there is a tutorial in the forum about printing films with halftones with the Canon iX6820 printer: https://www.turboprint.info/support/viewtopic.php?f=22&t=7659 You can find the complete description of the screen printing options in the PrintFab PDF manual - "Special settings for screen prin...

Hello,

thank you for your suggestion. The WF-7710 HQ driver should also work for the WF-7720, I thought the printers are almost identical except for the WF-7720's second paper tray. Can you describe what doesn't work properly?

Hello,

unfortunately the Canon TS8380 (and most newer Canon TS... printers) do not support the combination of custom size + borderless printing.

Hello, printing speed depends on several factors like - the printer - the selected print quality - the complexity of the document: High resolution images, detailed illustrations and large PDF files take longer to print. Usually, printing time increases with document size. - it is also relevant from ...

Reinstalling TurboPrint on a new Linux installation is generally no problem. However, the license key file is only valid for TurboPrint versions that were released up 6 months after purchase (or 2 years if the option "2 years free updates" has been purchased).

I am not sure which reproduction is better - the Canon driver tends to exaggerate red a bit. The option to add color space profiles like "ProPhoto RGB" is only available in the version "TurboPrint Studio". The reproduction of saturated colors will improve, TurboPrint performs a direct conversion fro...

Hello nypaulie, Probably you should download the "64bit" Version for Mint/Ubuntu, however this depends on your installed Linux system as you might also have installed a 32bit Mint OS (which would require the 32bit version of TurboPrint). There are also different license versions, TurboPrint "Pro" fo...

Hello, thank you for your report. This sounds like a know problem that should already be fixed: The "microweave" algorithm must use a lower print speed (feed the paper less per print head pass) at the top and botoom edge of the printed page. Switching to regular print speed during the page must be d...

Hello, I agree that the TurboPrint printout doesn't look as it should. The reason is probably that the GIMP TurboPrint print plugin was originally written for an older version of GIMP and doesn't respect the image color space, so it interprets the image as sRGB and not as ProPhoto RGB. You can eithe...
