Here are the answers to your questions (sorry for the delay):
- TurboPrint applies the colour profile to the RGB data
- the settings on the printer itself don't matter when printing with TurboPrint

Re: Canon Pro-300 only prints 600ppi, not 1200ppi
Hello, I just checked Canon's specifications and your observation is correct. For printers like the Canon imagePROGRAF Pro-300 that perform halftoning in the printer firmware, there are two types of "print resolution" : - the "input resolution" or "rendering resolution"...

Re: Transparencies with Canon ix6820 not printing
Hello, yes, I agree that it could be a problem with bad ink cartridges and I am almost sure that it is not a problem with driver settings. The ink cartridges for Canon have a sponge that "holds" the ink and prevents it from flowing out. In some refill cartridges not enough ink is released ...

Re: Will the gimp plugin work with gimp-2.99
Hello, we haven't tried the TurboPrint plugin with GIMP 2.99 yet but chances are good so please give it a try. It is important to know that the TurboPrint GIMP print plugin will only work with a regular installation of GIMP (.tgz .deb .rpm or compile &install from source), not with a SNAP package.

Re: Canon imagePROGRAF PRO-300 Red Ink
Hello, the Canon imagePROGRAF Pro-300 can only be controlled by the printer driver in "Device RGB" color space which means that the printer accepts a RGB bitmap for the page and does the conversion to the actual printer inks (Yellow, Magenta, Cyan, Black, Grey, Red, ...) within the printer...

Re: Which icc profile to select for soft proofing
Hello, yes, this is correct. You can use the following soft proof profiles: Photo Paper Plus Glossy II - PP-301 => TS9500-canon_pp201.icc Glossy Photo Paper - GP-701 => TS9500-canon_gp501.icc This is a good approximation. Of course you can use our profiling service to create an individual color prof...

Re: Presets
Hello, the printing settings "presets" are a mechanism of macOS, not PrintFab. In our experience the presets work reliably - if a "preset" is selected in the macOS print dialog, the corresponding settings are also used for the next print job. A known problem is that macOS sometim...

Re: Upgrading my Mac OS. Will I have issues?
Hello,
generally, printing halftones with PrintFab Pro XL works also on Ventura.
Can you describe your problem - e.g. you cannot find the dialog "Special settings screen printings"?

Re: RE-Turboprint 2.15 needed
The sorting may be a bit confusing, at the top are RPM and TGZ downloads and at the end the DEB downloads. The oldest TurboPrint version that is currently available is 2.36-1 from 2015.
