Re: Pro10S - Connection SNAFUs

Hello riclin, thank you for your follow up message. Normally, the status and ink messages should work via the BJNP connection. It looks as if the printer could not be found, possibly because it was blocked by another process? Some Canon printers also can connect via TCP/Socket protocol - this could ...

Re: setup.sh : "Could not start X_WINDOWS installation tool."

Hello, I think that a library is missing that is required by TurboPrint, e.g. gtk2.

Installation can be done from Terminal with the command line

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get install gtk2.0

Re: Can PrintFab and Epson printer drivers co-exist on same PC?

Hello, this is no problem. You can install PrintFab and set up the PrintFab R265 driver when the original Epson driver is installed. This way you can select which printer driver to use when you print. However, PrintFab doesn't require the original Epson driver to be installed.

Re: 11x17 Borderless support

11x17" is supported in PrintFab but not as a "borderless" print size. The Canon PIXMA Pro-200 does not support custom borderless sizes, but 11x17" should work in borderless mode. I will send you a modified driver file next week.

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...
