Re: BW print color cast

Yes, the sliders got rid of the cast, even if I forgot to set Gray Photo.

So what is the use of Gray Photo?

Is there a way to save the settings?
Switching back and forth from color to BW would be easier.

Re: BW print color cast

no, I mean that I forget the settings...

so setting "Gray photo" doesn't exclude colored cartridges?

BW print color cast

Hello All, I know it has been debated before, but I was unable to sort out the problem. I did not experience this color cast before, and it's not my first BW print, but now I have a slight magenta cast on the print. The printer is a Canon Pixma-Pro 10s, paper Canson Rag Photographique, Gloss Auto, Q...

Re: how to tweak colors

Hello and thanks for your support, yes, it looks like I was too conservative in applying the corrections. Ok for the check-box missing. In another post on the forum I read that RGB/sRGB profiles are not needed, given that they are installed by default. So everything is clear, now... for the moment. ...

Re: how to tweak colors

One more thing, in my "Profiles" Tab, at Color spaces I have only CMYK, no RGB/Generic,or RGB/sRGB.

This looks weird.. but I do not know where to find them on my Ubuntu 20.04.

Re: how to tweak colors

On the PDF manual for TP, page 40, Individual Color Correction, says: "With the option "use individual color correction" you can ENABLE or DISABLE these controls". I should find a checkbox here, I guess, but there isn't one. I wonder if my setting just disables individual color c...

how to tweak colors

Hello All, I am on Turboprint/Ubuntu 20.04, and print from Gimp. I am having a hard time to obtain the correct pink/complexion I see on my calibrated display when printing on my Canon PixmaPro 10s, with Canson Baryta Photographique II. I tried tweaking the TurboPrint Control tabs Color/Saturation +4...

Re: printer not connected

So, the printer address is set as bjnp://192.168.1.xxx:8611, however, in TurboPrint Control Center I see, Connection Type set to "standard printer" (shows an USB cable), instead of Other Printer (Network). If I choose Other, I have the following options: - LPD - JetDirect - IPP - CUPS None...

Re: printer not connected

follow up..

I had a problem with the IP address (probably I reboot the printer and DHCP gave it a different address), which is now solved.

The printer works, is printing, BUT.. still shows "printer not connected" and the ink bars are all blank...

Re: printer not connected

ok, I have clue...

in /var/log/turboprint/print.log I see...

device for Pro10S-TurboPrint: bjnp://192.168.x.yyy:8611

but the current address is 192.168.x.zzz so this is the problem.

Where is written the printer address, so I can fix the problem?

thanks,

printer not connected

Hello, I have a Canon Pixma Pro 10s, with Turboprint. There is something weird, because the driver complains that the printer is not connected, and shows a USB cable. However, the printer works from the web manager, answers pings correctly. It's like if the driver is looking for the USB cable, ignor...

correct workflow

Hello All,

I am wondering what is the correct or best workflow...

- calculate image size properly, scale the image with Gimp accordingly, then feed to printer
- do not resize image but use the scale slider in Turboprint, in order to match paper size

thanks for your comments,

-Gian
