Re: Text not printing from web browsers using Turboprint

The problem is not one of ink, anything printed from say Libreoffice prints just fine however printing from Thunderbird may show a blank page if the email is only text when I get to the Turboprint preview although the Thunderbird preview is fine showing the text. If the email contains images then us...

Re: Text not printing from web browsers using Turboprint

I have just tested this issue again having removed Turboprint and deleted the printer. Using CUPS defined printer alone the printing from Thunderbird altough it does not resolve the issue with Waterfox in that the printing keeps pausing. It seems like TP is at least partly responsible for this issue...

Text not printing from web browsers using Turboprint

Not sure yet if this is TP or Linux issue. I have been trying to print web pages from Firefox, Waterfox and Chromium but on every occasion I try all that shows up are an odd image but no text at all so nothing seems to work. I can print OK from Ocular and Libreoffice etc. I am using the latest TP on...

Re: Turboprint Gimp Plugin conflicts with Gutenprint Plugin

OK so now having deleted everything relevant and then re-installing everything and setting up from scratch now both plugins work fine. Something in the past must have gone awry and now having done a clean install/setup it works as it should.

Re: Turboprint Gimp Plugin conflicts with Gutenprint Plugin

Just tried your suggestion but my GIMP is installed in lib64 not lib, dont know if that makes a difference to your plugin. Anyway removing it from the lib64 directory tree makes no difference, print still goes to the TP ip7250 queue despite ensuring the CP900 is selected. What I will do in the next ...

Re: Turboprint Gimp Plugin conflicts with Gutenprint Plugin

Sorry but it appears to have added two copies of the Gutenprint plugin and the third image is the TP one.

Re: Turboprint Gimp Plugin conflicts with Gutenprint Plugin

OK so when I open the file menu in GIMP I am presented with 3 printing options, first is Print or Ctrl-P, Second is Prinet with Gutenprint and third is Turboprint. I have attached two images one of the Gutenprint plugin and the second is the TP one. The Gutenprint plugin is a separate package to ins...

Re: Turboprint Gimp Plugin conflicts with Gutenprint Plugin

Ignoring the CP900 bit, can I have an update on your thoughts on the original issue of TP and Gutenprint GIMP plugin conflicting please. This is a continuing issue as you do not support the CP900 and I am unable to print from GIMP to my CP900 unless I uninstall TP.

Turboprint and Selphy printers

I noticed that TP 2.45 now supports some Canon Selphy printers. I have a CP900 which is functionally equivalent to both CP820 and 910 when connected by USB. I have installed this TP release and despite it finding the connected printer locally and allowing me to add it I am unable to print to the pri...

Re: Turboprint Gimp Plugin conflicts with Gutenprint Plugin

Just been doing some checking and I notice that you know support the Canon CP910 with the latest version. Will this also work with the CP900? Also does this support a wireless connection and if so how does it have to be setup?

Re: Turboprint Gimp Plugin conflicts with Gutenprint Plugin

I've just been doing some more testing. I removed TP and all printers then installed the CP900 in CUPS and used the gutenprint gimp plugin to print just fine. I then re-installed TP and immediately the output from the gutenprint gimp plugin was sent to my iP7250 incorrectly. So I am now at a complet...

Re: Turboprint Gimp Plugin conflicts with Gutenprint Plugin

In my previous thread about this you suggested removing the TPU from cups backend and restarting cups to see if it fixed the problem. No it does not. I have also tried removing the TP gimp plugin but that does not fix it either. The only way I have found to solve this issue is to uninstall TP comple...

Re: Turboprint Gimp Plugin conflicts with Gutenprint Plugin

Just realised I had reported this some time ago on a different distro. This is a big issue especially as you do not support dyesub printers, as you said before they should not interfere with each other but I can assure you that they do. If I uninstall TP the gutenprint plugin works but as soon as I ...

Turboprint Gimp Plugin conflicts with Gutenprint Plugin

I have been having issues trying to print to my dyesub CP900 using the Gutenprint Plugin for Gimp where although all settings were correct for my CP900 the output ended up on the Turboprint queue for my Canon iP7250. Having removed Turboprint from my system the Gutenprint Plugin now works correctly ...

That image was digikam 5.8 with KDE 5.11.95 on openSUSE Tumbleweed. I've always had that advanced tab.
