TurboPrint & PrintFab

Thanks. I hope this will be sooner rather than later since the LTS version of openSUSE (Leap) will move to Plasma 6 QT6 by September this year and so the current widget will stop working in the LTS version as it has already in Tumbleweed.

Can I please get an answer to this query? I am running openSUSE Tumbleweed with KDE Plasma 6.4 using Wayland. Also the Preview for a print job does not pop up until after data is sent for the first page and the Monitor does not usually open automatically when I start a print job so I am now in the h...

I've been running TurboPrint now for several months on Wayland with no issues.

Maybe I'm mistaken but I thought there was a specific TP widget for KDE Plasma but I am unable to find one. I'm running openSUSE Tumbleweed KDE Plasma 6.

Any suggestions please?

Just got round to trying again with multi-page PDF from Okular and it worked OK this time. So it looks like the failure I had when I reported this was an aberration! I'll keep an eye on it.

I printed a single page PDF this afternoon from Okular and it worked fine prompting me to print the page. I'll try again later using a multi-page PDF.

I noticed it when printing a PDF from Okular. Also I may have sent the document to the printer prior to it appearing online but cannot remember right now. I'll do some tests later on today.

I am running the latest available TP on Tumbleweed and apart from this minor niggle it works fine. My issue is that when I send a multi-page document to TP with preview set in the monitor it does not prompt me with the preview until the second page of the document if it is a one page document I see ...

My issue was that my photo black cartridge ran out, the small one, and the pigment black was pretty much 99% full and I've only been printing PDFs on plain paper. So how do you account for the photo black running out when none of the other colours have and the pigment black was 99% full? I know a sm...

Having just managed to get a pdf printed on plain paper using pigmented ink I had to set grey scale, why does this have to be done to get the pigmented ink used? I'd expect it to use pigmented ink along side the colour inks when set to 300dpi and plain paper and colour mode it is plain paper after a...

Can you please explain why when using plain paper the photo black was used up and the pigmented black has hardly been used despite the usage displayed on my screenshot.

Stuart

I just wanted to confirm that the cartridge which has run out and had to be replaced was the small photo black. The pigmented black is showing full. Stuart

OK well on the TP Control display I have plain paper set as the default but when I look at the Ink Counters it shows as the Pigmented Black being used but in fact it is using the photo black. It is like TP has it the wrong way round. See image attached. Stuart

I am finding that when I print PDFs or just text from an editor my ip7250 using TurboPrint always uses the small cartridge for the black and never seems to use the larger black cartridge. I was under the impression that documents printed in black text should print with this larger cartridge. Is ther...

I don't have that printer but looking for it on my Turboprint Control and clicking on Add once the connection is set up it shows the available printers to select from and if you select HP it does show your printer. So I'm not sure what you mean.
