[SOLVED] Printing on CD with CANON TS8350

Post by rccs »

I'm having problem printing on printable CD with my new CANON TS 8530.
When I send the print, it gives me back the message "server printer mismatch".

I use Turboprint 2.49 on Linux Mint 20.3 and it works for printing on paper.

Any suggestion?

Hello,

to print on CD or DVD, make sure to set the following in the TurboPrint driver settings

- media type = "CD printable"
- page size = "CD printable"
- tray = "CD tray"

I recommend to enable "Preview jobs" in TurboPrint Monitor so you can verify if the settings shown in TurboPrint Monitor are correct before actually printing.

If this doesn't help, please write where you see the error message - on the printer and/or in TurboPrint Monitor - and send the log file

/var/log/turboprint/print.log

I will also send you an email, please send the log file as an answer to this email.

Thank you. It worked and it solved the problem.

With my previous printer, it didn't matter the page size setting. I used to use an A4 pagesize with the CD/DVD image in the middle (vertically) and left and it worked.

At first I had problem because I use Inkscape and with the old version 0.91 the page size setting wasn't modifiable. Now that I upgraded to 1.1 it works fine.
Thank you again.
