TurboPrint & PrintFab

Hello, thank you for your feedback! Unfortunately this printer does not offer "automatic alignment", so it is necessary to print the pages and choose the best aligned fields. "Best aligned" means that the stripes are least visible, the color of the field is almost solid. There is...

Hello,

thank you for your feedback!
This will be fixed in the next TurboPrint release.

As a workaround you could specify the device uri from command line using

lpadmin -p printer -v smb://user:password@server/printer

Hello, please install TurboPrint and then remove the script /etc/X11/Xsession.d/95turboprint_monitor This script performs some initializations: - create communication pipes from the printer driver to TurboPrint Monitor - make sure that TurboPrint Monitor is started in the background - create TurboPr...

Hello, the URI for a Windows printer should look like smb://server/printer where "server" is the network name of the Windows computer and "printer" is the share name of the printer queue. In the thread http://www.turboprint.info/support/viewtopic.php?t=389 I explained how to debu...

Hello, - the MP150 ist directly supported by TurboPrint - does a Pixma MP310 exist? such a device is not available in Europe or USA - however, the MX310 is supported by TP - there is no special driver for the PSC1610 but it should work with the HP Deskjet515x driver The single license allows to use ...

Hello slotwin, as the "x" in "xtpsetup" indicates, this setup program need xwindows. However, there is a separate setup program called "tpsetup" that is just console based and works without xwindows. You seem to use the previous version 1 of TurboPrint - to configure th...

Do you also get these lines when printing a test page or printing from other applications?
Can you send us a scan of such a printout? Preferably via email to mail (at) zedonet (dot) de. This will help to get an idea what the reason might be.

Hello dialman, probably some nozzles of the print head are blocked. Please print a nozzle check to see if all nozzles are okay. If not, have the head cleaned and try again with a nozzle check. Depending on the print mode, the Canon printer driver does not use all nozzles - so it could be the case th...

Hello carusoswi, The profiling service is located in Germany. To have a printed chart measured, the chart needs to be sent to the profiling service via mail. The costs per profile are 15 EUR. It is paid in advance by purchasing a profile order number. Both versions of TurboPrint support color profil...

Hello,

in "grayscale photo" mode the driver uses black & grey ink plus a bit of color to preserve neutral grey. Color balance can be adjusted using the "color / gray balance" sliders.

Currently there is no "black & gray only" mode available.

Hello snoopy27,

apparently you printed via the standard GIMP print dialog not with the TurboPrint print plugin (file->turboprint...)? Do you get the same problem with the "TurboPrint..." print dialog in GIMP?

Hello philg, probably you tried to connect the printer via the "Socket" protocol - there you can enter a port number. The appropriate number would be "9100" - you can also just leave this field blank. It would be easier to connect the printer via the "canon network protocol&...

Hello,

the TurboPrint ColorLaserJet drivers send PCL5color command language - PCL6 is for black&white only.

Probably this printer needs Postscript command language to print in color.

Hello,

thank you for your feedback! Which printer do you have?

Hello, the BJNP backend has no influence on the connection via Socket protocol, so there must be a different reason why it no longer works with that setting. Is your printer detected automatically in TurboPrint Control Center when adding a new printer? It should be detected by the "BJNP" b...
