Printing from Vista64 gone...
Posted: Mon Aug 06, 2007 4:13 pm
Hi,
I setup 1-95-2 few months ago on Suse 10.1. All was working ok.
After a while I couldn't print on CD (printer start to print on CD but in A4 format, total mess...). I changed to 1-96-2 and I can't print at all now. All looks ok when printing from Suse or my laptops (XP), however my desktop (Vista64) can't print anymore. I'm not sure what happend, is it a vista driver, vista upgrades or Turboprint.
I downgraded back to 1-95-2 but it did not help. It seems that the job is not send to Turboprint (or Turboprint is not taking it?) It might be that the windows can't get printer status (XP has the same issue but somehow the printing is succesful ). Turboprint is excelent program but seems to lack Vista compatibility. OTOH, it could be vista drivers... However, printing directly from within Vista works perfect. Very confusig as all was working perfect first time I installed Turboprint.
I have run out of ideas. Can anyone suggest anything?
Thanks,
michal
EDIT: the printer is Canon Pixma ip5300
