drivers for remote printing

[dstorey]

Hi

I have a Canon PIXMA Pro 9500 II. It's a good printer, but I can't get drivers out of canon anymore for this thing, which led me to Turboprint.

I want to print from two workstations - a Mac and a Linux one that I mainly use for Photography (Darktable). I purchased a 3 license version as I assumed I'd need that.

I've put Turboprint on a Raspberry Pi and am sharing from Cups.

My question is this: Where does the PIXMA 9500 print driver reside? Should I have a raw queue on the Pi and the driver on the workstation? or the correct driver on the pi? I've tried the IPP Everywhere driver, but then on linux, I don't have any options to set paper, print quality etc. And when I print, it seems to print fast, not the slow care it does at high resolution. If I select A4 borderless, it completely scales it wrong and uses the wrong colour palate.

Any pointers how to set up this print chain properly?

Thanks Dominic

Hello,

the recommendation is to set up a raw queue on the Pi and to install TurboPrint and PrintFab on the workstations.

When setting up your Pro 9500II printer with TurboPrint on the Linux workstation, configure the network connection as follows:

and on your Mac, install PrintFab, then set up the printer using macOS "System Preferences" -> "Printers & Scanners":
