Re: Immutable distros (Silverblue, Bazzite)

Hello, sorry for the late reply. We tested with Bazzite 42 and installation of the TurboPrint RPM (layering) seemed to work well. Installation in a distrobox probably doesn't work because the printer spooler CUPS cannot access the TurboPrint printer driver filter. If you want to reconfigure where Tu...

Re: Borderless printing does not work in maximum quality DPI mode

The setting "4 - 2880dpi" is the highest print quality for borderless printing, with "5 - 2880dpi fine" and "6 - 5760dpi" borderless printing is not possible.

Re: Driver CD print size is wrong

Yes, as described in the TurboPrint PDF manual, CD printing is done with a fixed page size of 14x14cm (larger than any printable CD). Would you like to print on other material than an actual CD/DVD using the CD tray? TurboPrint PDF manual https://www.zedonet.com/download/manual/TurboPrint%20Linux%20...

Re: Distorted colors on HP z3100

Hello and please excuse the delay. Of course this should not be the case. If you print on matte fineart paper directly from the PrintFab Composer, the settings - Quality = Medium or High - Mediatype = Hahnemuehle Smooth Fineart below should produce a print in good color quality - see below: PrintFab...

Re: Borderless printing does not work in maximum quality DPI mode

Hello and please excuse the delay. I have just investigated and found out that the Epson SC-P900 doesn't support borderless printing in the highest print resolution, this is a restriction of the printer firmware that also applies to Epson's Windows driver. TurboPrint should not allow this combinatio...

Re: Borderless Printing Ubuntu - No Turboprint option in Gimp File Menu?

If you print from Gimp 3.x, a workarount is to crop the image before printing so the width/height ratio of the image is the same as of the paper.
There might be other Linux apps that allow borderless printing by enlarging the output, but I can't name one at the moment.

Re: Borderless Printing Ubuntu - No Turboprint option in Gimp File Menu?

Hello, the Gimp TurboPrint print plugin works only with Gimp 2.xx with the standard .DEB package, not with the Gimp Snap package and not with Gimp 3. Currently there are no plans to rewrite the plugin for Gimp 3. As a replacement, we are working on a standalone app that can load and print images. Pl...
