TurboPrint & PrintFab

Hello,
I've a registered copy of Turboprint software for my Canon MP980 on Ubuntu Lucid Lynx. It woks well for colour printings but no for text documents printings because the printer use a colour cartridge combination for black.

There are no possibility to change the printing options:
main > mode > photo

When I use OOo writer:
properties > device > cartridge > photo

What's wrong? What can I do?

Thanks
Rafa

Hello,

the setting "Cartridge" is for printers where the ink head can be exchanged - e.g. some HP printers accept either a black cartridge, a color cartridge or a photo cartridge.

On plain paper, black text is always printed with black ink only. On coated inkjet paper or glossy paper, a bit of color is added for deeper blacks.

To force printing with black ink only, use the color mode "Grayscale" (TurboPrint Control, tab "Color").
