TurboPrint & PrintFab

Hi! 1. Your TurboPrint license can only be used with Linux - it is possible to install Linux on your Mac but this is probably not what you want. 2. A "cross upgrade" TurboPrint / Linux => PrintFab 2 Home / Mac costs EUR 39,-. This upgrade is not available in our online shop - please order ...

TurboPrint only supports the print function of multifunction devices. Scanner & fax drivers may be added in the future but there are no short-term plans.

Drivers for new Canon printers are planned for early 2007. Most new Canon printers can be used with existing drivers: Canon iP4300 -> iP4200 Canon MP160 -> MP150 Canon MP180 -> MP170 Canon MP460 -> MP450 Canon MP510 -> MP500 Canon MP600 -> MP500 Canon MP810 -> MP800 Canon iP1200/1300/1700 -> iP2200 ...

I don't think that the error "Local authentication certificate not found!" is related to TurboPrint - this error message is reported in forums for all kinds of drivers. You can try two things: 1. Create a CUPSD certificate (as reported by another customer) with the command : 'openssl req -...

Hello,

one possible explanation is that the parallel port is blocked while the printer is connected via USB to the print server.

If this is not the reason please inspect the log files /var/log/cups/error_log and /var/log/turboprint_cups.log - you may post the section from the last print job.

Hello, the error message "cannot execute binary file" looks like if you had downloaded the wrong version - e.g. TurboPrint for 64bit or PPC on a 32bit Linux (even if your processor is 64bit, a 32bit linux requires the 32bit TurboPrint download "turboprint-1.94-4.i386.rpm" or &quo...

Hello, currently only the automatic duplexer unit is supported. Manual duplexing is planned for a future TurboPrint version. This will be possible with locally connected printers and network printers. A solution for now would be to print odd pages first, then even pages (possible e.g. with OpenOffic...

I have not heard of such a problem. I suggest that your friend contacts us directly so that we can get the problem solved. In such cases please include the serial number as displayed by TurboPrint Config / command line "xtpconfig".

Sometimes printer entries get "confused" within CUPS.

Please try to remove and add the printer again from TurboPrint Setup / command line "xtpsetup".

please try the following: -Open the file /etc/apt/sources.list - go to this line ## Uncomment the following two lines to fetch updated software from the network - if the following lines have comment symbols (#) uncomment these two by deleting the "#" symbol. # deb http://archive.ubuntu.com...

Hello Yann, one license is sufficient. PrintFab should be installed on the G5 client computer - only this way you will get the PrintFab print dialogs from your application (with automatic printer sharing you get "generic" print dialogs that don't offer all options). The printer should be a...

This sounds like a problem that existed with earlier versions of the CUPS printing system - as long as no data were sent to the printer the error status "media tray empty" was reported by CUPS (and also reported in TurboPrint Config). Which version of CUPS are you using - e.g. shown in a w...

Please check the print command in the GIMP print dialog. There should be no "-o raw" option, e.g. change

lp -d tp0 -o raw

into

lp -d tp0

Which printer are you using?

Duplex printing is supported, direct usb or wireless connection should not matter - it the printer prints at all, it should also print duplex. The default setting can be changed in TurboPrint Config / command line "xtpconfig": page "paper", drop down list "duplex". In s...

Can you print from TurboPrint Config / command line "xtpconfig", e.g. page "toolbox", button "nozzle check"? If that works, also try the "test page" (test & status page).
