TurboPrint & PrintFab

There is a proflem with USB port access on some Ubuntu installations: I have a similar problem on an MP600. I solved it by checking the permissions of /dev/usb* Turned out that cupsys runs as user "cupsys", which needs to be in group plugdev. This is on Ubuntu Feisty. So check ls -l /dev/u...

Hello,

in "greyscale mode", the PrintFab driver uses only the black ink cartridge. The Canon driver mixes brighter shades of grey out of cyan, magenta & cyan which produces a finer pattern. This mode is also available in PrintFab where it is called "grey photo".

First try to do a

ping 192.168.0.99

if you get replies, the ip & network connection should work.

Then try a different network protocols:

Connection = Remote printer
Server = 192.168.0.99
Printer = lp

or

Connection = Socket
Server = 192.168.0.99
Port = 9100

Hello, previous versions of GIMP did some "corrections" in the PostscriptLevel2 output driver before sending the image to printer driver - please see our TurboPrint HTML manual, chapter 7, section "gimp". If you are using GIMP with Gutenprint drivers version 5.0.0rc2 or higher, t...

Sorry, I was taking about our Linux driver "TurboPrint". PrintFab and TurboPrint are in the same forum so I got confused. You are right, you can adjust the usage of light colors. This makes sense as it is possible to save ink by doing so (however there is more grain). We chose not to make ...

It may be a known problem that is resolved with Ubuntu 6.10 / cups 1.2.3: The page format is not correctly transmitted to the driver.

Solution: install cups-1.2.3

Workaround: change the default page size to 4x6 in TurboPrint Config.

Please contact ZEDOnet directly - use the feedback page in www.turboprint.info or send a "PM" private message.

Include the invoice number or order number.

Hello, Picasa shows the "rendering resolution" - the resolution at which the image is sent to the printer driver. The driver does halftoning at 4800dpi. Picasa does not allow to change print resolution - instead the default must be changed in TurboPrint Config / command line "xtpconfi...

This is correct:

You can adjust Black, Cyan, Magenta and Yellow in TurboPrint Config.

However, the conversion from CMYK to more color channels is fixed (e.g. Red, Blue for the R1800 or light cyan, light magenta for other photo printers).

Hello, the Canon i9900 is supported by PrintFab. If you set up the printer from PrintFab Toolbox, choose "Canon" as manufacturer and "Canon i9900" as printer. If it is a network printer you have to install via OS X Printer Setup Utility (Applications / Utilities). In this case ch...

Hello, you are printing a PDF file which is being converted by the pdftops filter which is part of the CUPS printing system.
