PrintEase rivoluziona stampa e scansione su Linux: niente driver, niente configurazioni complicate, solo semplicità immediata 🖨️ #Linux #OpenSource #GTK #CUPS #Printing
Today I came across a weird #printer problem. From #Debian #Linux I could print to the #Canon PIXMA printer in simplex or #duplex.
BUT, in duplex mode it would print a side, eject the paper, re-load the paper, then eject it again without printing anything on it, and then start the second page on a separate sheet of paper.
This happened from my PC and a separate one using the stock #IPP driver in #CUPS
Annoyingly it works perfectly in Windows...

I only need:
-run #CUPS
-have WiFi (even with a dongle)
-have a USB port
-automatically boot when powered on.
What device would you recommend?
At my home I have a Raspberry Pi 2 and it works fine, but the "Raspberry" brand is on hype lately. Maybe there is something similar at a lower price.
Just printed a test page on my Mom's printer from 266 miles away. That was fun.
Isso tudo me lembra quando eu participava no FISL, não me lembro exatamente, pode ser em 2003 e 2004, e eu dei tutoriais sobre CUPS em Português, com a sala superlotada, pessoal assistindo em pé, os organizadores me daram 3 PCs (cada um com monitor CRT) e 2 impressoras para demonstrações de impressão em rede ...
Em um destes 2 anos tinha também Jon Maddog Hall lá ...
E tinha churrascos deliciosos ...
More details:
- The printer is a Brother HL-L5100DN series.
- I did the configuration of the "Location" in the printer's Web UI (not in CUPS).
- The #LinuxMint printer app only responded with "server-error-internal-error"
- But in the CUPS Web UI I got a proper error message regarding the umlaut.
So the error might very well be in the Brother software, not in CUPS.
To be on the safe side, I still reported the bug to the CUPS team:

Describe the bug Adding a Brother Printer (HL-L5100DN series) that is configured with a "Location" that contains a German umlaut ("ü") results in an error message. In my case, I had the Location se...

My new printer stopped working under #LinuxMint the other day. Re-adding it resulted in a general error message.
Finally found the solution:
In the printer's "location" field, I had specified "Mein Büro" ("My office" in German). And Cups does not like umlauts in that field. 😶
After removing the "ü", the printer worked.
Maybe this information will be helpful to someone, at some point. 🙂
