Re: Failure to print to iP90 after upgrade of OS

Success! system.cfg had no USB entry so I tried USB_MODE=0/1. Neither value had any effect so I had a look at the other parameters; most of them have the prefix TP_ . Using TP_USB_MODE=1 had an immediate effect (after switching the printer off and on). The iP90 was listed and succeeded in printing a...

Re: Failure to print to iP90 after upgrade of OS

I first reported these problems on a Mageia forum because CUPS was unable to see any USB printers except my HP 6520 which had already been configured through HPLIP. I went back to Turboprint in the hope that it would see the iP90 but no, nothing in the list. That is when I resorted to trying a URI. ...

[SOLVED]Failure to print to iP90 after upgrade of OS

For two years my Canon iP90 has served me well on a 32bit system running Magaeia 2. Time to move up to Mageia 4 I thought. The printer was working fine yesterday on Mageia 2 but after the installation of Mageia 4 I have had no luck with either CUPS or Turboprint. Both insisted that the printer was s...

Re: Trouble with Canon PIXMA iP90 after os reinstall

Stefan at Zedonet has pointed out that the trouble with version 2.12-1 was caused by Mageia's use of libusb1.0. The tpu backend was unable to see the printer on a USB connection. Problem solved by upgrading to Turboprint 2.25-2. After that it was a matter of a couple of minutes to a fully working pr...

[SOLVED]Trouble with Canon PIXMA iP90 after os reinstall

I have been running Turboprint 2.12-1 on a Toshiba Equium i586 under Mandriva 2009 for a couple of years to drive a Canon iP90. No problem. This is used to help with running a club so problems would be embarrassing. Having recently installed Mageia 2 on the laptop I had to reinstall the printer. Thi...

Re: Deskjet 6520

TurboPrint support suggested trying the hp515x driver and that works fine. lpr behaves itself; all the options I have tried work fine. It was the hpcups driver that I tried under CUPS. It must have superceded the hpijs driver. One up for TurboPrint :D . I like the installation procedure for drivers ...
