ip4300 grayscale, render intent and quality settings
Hi, adding this to the ppd file seems to make it work for grayscale
printing (this only sets/unsets the --grayscale command line option to the cannon print command, and displays a checkbox labelled "Color printing" on the CUPS menu):
Code:

*OpenUI *CNGrayscale/Color printing: Boolean
*DefaultCNGrayscale: False
*CNGrayscale True/OFF: ""
*CNGrayscale False/ON: ""
*CloseUI: *CNGrayscale


according to the japanese docs, the RenderIntent section should probably read:

Code:
*OpenUI *CNRenderIntent/Render Intent: PickOne
*DefaultCNRenderIntent: photo
*CNRenderIntent vivid/Vivid: "<</CNRenderIntent(vivid)>>setpagedevice"
*CNRenderIntent photo/Photo: "<</CNRenderIntent(photo)>>setpagedevice"
*CloseUI: *CNRenderIntent

And finally, the japanese docs for ip4300 mention there are 5 quality levels with values from 1 to 5, so the dialog for quality should probably read something like the following:
Code:

*OpenUI *CNQuality/Quality: PickOne
*DefaultCNQuality: 5
*CNQuality 1/SuperHigh: "1"
*CNQuality 2/High: "2"
*CNQuality 3/Normal: "3"
*CNQuality 4/Standard: "4"
*CNQuality 5/Economy: "5"
*CloseUI: *CNQuality

The documents mention that the default quality value changes automatically depending on the paper and other settings, so I am not sure how setting this option in the menu affects the printing. I'll make some tests and report back.
thanks for the ebuild, and for the information in this thread.

I am trying to get a Canon i250 running with this ebuild. I set the USE Flags ip1000 and servicetools. No emerge problems. Adding the printer in cups works fine. I can start print jobs, e. g. with lp or lpr. And there are no errors in /var/log/cups/error_log.

But the printer is just not doing anything.

I tried it using bjcups-2.3.0 and bjfilter-2.3.0. This one works, but pstocanonbj is buggy and is crashing often.

Would be glad about any idea.

PostPosted: Tue Aug 21, 2007 3:41 pm    Post subject: Success: Canon MP780 via Printserver Pricom 6200U Reply with quote

On my i686 based Gentoo 2007.0 Linux-PC (Kernel 2.6.19-gentoo-r5 #1 SMP), I was able to configure my Canon Pixma MP780 which is attached to a Silex Pricom 6200U Printserver.

After downloading bjfilter-2.50-r6.ebuild as well as bjfilter-2.50-pixusip4100-ppd.patch into my portage overlay, adjusting my USE-Flags (adding servicetools and ip4100) and adding LINGUAS="de en", I was able to emerge the complete ebuild. I restarted cupsd and went to http://127.0.0.1:631 and when choosing "Printers" -> "Add Printer" I was asked by CUPS whether I want to add Canon MP780 on 10.10.0.13:631/ipp - I was able to print the test page. Anyway, lp returned "Bad Request" and the printer did not show up in gnome-cups-manager. This could be cured by adding CUPS_SERVER=localhost to my .bashrc - printing a test page from openoffice-writer succeeded then.

Thank you very much for this nice tool!

Hi all,
this is just to add pixma ip5300 to the list. I used the ip 4300 driver and it works fine so far (test page and printing a composite document from OO). I haven't tried duplex or bordereless modes though. Cups see it as Canon_iP5300_USB_1.

Just a question : do you think that using a driver from another printer might damage the printer ?

Hi everybody.
My Pixma iP1600 won't print, I installed the driver, added it to cups and printed a test page. Cups shows that the process finishes correctly, but the printer shows no reaction.

That's what I did:
Install it:
Code:
net-print/cnijfilter-2.60::zugaina {:0} [R] (-amd64) cnijtools ip2200 -ip4200 -ip6600d -ip7500 -mp500
net-print/cups-1.2.10-r1::gentoo {:0} [R] X dbus jpeg -ldap -nls pam -php png ppds samba -slp ssl tiff

restart cups
Adding printer via web interface
-> Printer shows no reaction, not even light flashing.

Any help appreciated.

Sorry for my bad english (i'm french)
I have a similar problem with a canon pixma ip4200 and it solve now.

Apparently it's a bad user and group for printer (via udev).
Before :
Quote:

ls -l /dev/usb/
crw-rw---- 1 root plugdev 180, 0 oct 28 2007 lp0

With :
Quote:

chown lp:plugdev /dev/usb/lp0

The problem solved and printer printing :).

Also, i add a rule device in /etc/udev/rules.d/10-local.rules :
Quote:

BUS=="usb", SYSFS{idVendor}=="04a9", SYSFS{idProduct}=="10a2", MODE:="0660", OWNER:="lp", GROUP:="plugdev"

For idVendor and idProduct, you can use lsub, for example in my home :
Quote:
lsusb
Bus 001 Device 004: ID 04a9:10a2 Canon, Inc.


I hope that this solve your problem.

I'm sure my iP4200 worked once upon a time....

I've been battling these cnijfilter packages and can't come to a resolve.

- When I printed a test page the printer makes a noise and the light flashes...
- the print job disappears from the queue
- the printer does nothing, no paper feeding, no printing, nothing
- no errors in cups/error_log

Please help....

Solved:

There must be a problem with the "Print a Test Page" button because I later decided to try print from gedit and it worked!!!

I'll file a bug somewhere...

How do you get the tar ball to work? I installed it in '/usr/local/portage/app-emulation/emul-linux-x86-bjdeps' but when I run 'ebuild /usr/local/portage/app-emulation/emul-linux-x86-bjdeps/emul-linux-x86-bjdeps-0.1-r1.ebuild digest' It still try's to download 'popt-1.7.tar.gz' anyway???

I have a Canon PIXMA MP830. I'm having trouble getting this to work at this step in AMD64:

Code:

# mkdir -p app-emulation/emul-linux-x86-bjdeps/files
# wget http://bugs.gentoo.org/attachment.cgi?id=108555 -O app-emulation/emul-linux-x86-bjdeps/emul-linux-x86-bjdeps-0.1-r1.ebuild
# wget http://bugs.gentoo.org/attachment.cgi?id=84280 -O app-emulation/emul-linux-x86-bjdeps/files/popt-1.7-missing-tests.patch
# wget http://bugs.gentoo.org/attachment.cgi?id=84281 -O app-emulation/emul-linux-x86-bjdeps/files/popt-1.7-nls.patch

# ebuild /usr/local/portage/app-emulation/emul-linux-x86-bjdeps/emul-linux-x86-bjdeps-0.1-r1.ebuild digest


It only tries to download 'popt-1.7.tar.gz' and DOESN'T digest the ebuild. Any idea how to get this to work???

you need to copy it to /usr/portage/distfiles, and then emerge it ;)

Try to copy the file popt-1.7.tar.gz to your /usr/portage/distfiles/ .

To avoid problems when updating the portage tree, I put the ebuild into a local repository (ie in /usr/portage/local/my_own_overlay) and I add this "overlay" to
Code:
PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/portage/local/perso/my_own_overlay"
in my /etc/make.conf file.

(I'm not sure but I assume that added ebuild into main portage tree will be removed when you'll run emerge --sync)

PS : To find popt-1.7.tar.gz, you can use google or stuffs like that ...

If this doesn't work, you can post full output of ebuild's digest

Just got my Canon MP160 working.

I did what the HOW-TO said:
1. I created /usr/local/portage/net-print/cnijfilter

2. I downloaded cnijfilter-2.70.ebuild into the directory.

3. I put net-print/cnijfilter into /etc/portage/package.keywords

4. I put net-print/cnijfilter mp160 into /etc/portage/package.use

5. I restarted cupsd

6. I added a printer and found the mp160 in the list of drivers.

7. I ran the test print!!

Thanks again.

Tim.

I've just bought a Canon Pixma MP520 multi functional, and after some tweaking, it seems to work fine.
The printer-part was the easiest part of it. Just install the cnijfilter-2.8 (after creating a local ebuild, because it isn't in any available at the moment), with MP520 as USE-flag. This will give you the basic support (600dpi and standard quality printing). After editing the canonmp520.ppd file with info I found on the gentoo-wiki page about the Pixma printers, and reinstalling the printer, I'm now able to chose up to 2400dpi and 4 quality settings.
As I said, this was the easy part.

For the scanner to work, I needed to do a bit more. Installing the latest Sane-version, gave me some hope.
Code:
sane-find-scanner -q
gave me a positive response, but
Code:
scanimage -L
failed. Some searching on the internet learned that there is an newer version of sanelib-pixma needed. It happens to be same version that is needed for the MP610, which is apparently a bit more common. This site gave me the final info I needed to get my scanner to work.

At the moment my MP520 is almost fully functional, thanks to the above steps. There is just one final thing missing, and that is borderless printing. But I've got a feeling that editing the PPD-file might also solve that. I only need to figure out which part means what... The paper-section seems kinda complex... For now I have to accept a small border of about 5mm.

Having recently bought a pixma ip4500x I had reason to visit the wiki : http://gentoo-wiki.com/Canon_Pixma_Series#AMD64_and_GCC4.x.x

It seems that there is no ebuild for gutenprint cvs - I have a working one - borrowing heavily from the existing portage versions, but am no expert & so would hesitate before foisting it upon the world. Is there anyone who would want to check it out & tidy up as necessary? Given the current problems with the canon drivers this may be timely.

Quote:
Note: Currently (May 22, 2008), the required source RPM packages for cnijfilter 2.60 and 2.70 are no longer on the Canon file server. You will need to find a mirror somewhere to be able to use the ebuilds.
Note: Currently (May 22, 2008), the ebuild for emul-linux-x86-bjdeps is no longer working: popt-1.7.tar.gz is no longer in the Gentoo Portage tree. It looks like the whole ebuild is broken.


My apologies if I've re-invented the wheel, but I could find no existing cvs ebuild!

ps. It seems to me that the colour balance issue has now been sorted out though, compared with the canon drivers, it is still too dark - but that is easier to fix as user.

hi all,

i am trying to get the canon driver compiled for my mp145 printer, however i encountered similar problems as shown:

/mnt/Share/Downloads/cnijfilter-common-2.80/cnijfilter/src# make
gcc -O2 -L../../315/libs_bin -o cif bjferror.o bjfilter.o bjfimage.o bjfoption.o bjfpos.o bjfrcaccess.o getipc.o bjflist.o -lcnbpcmcm315 -lcnbpess315 -lm -ldl -ltiff -lpng -lcnbpcnclapi315 -lcnbpcnclbjcmd315 -lcnbpcnclui315 -lpopt
/usr/bin/ld: skipping incompatible ../../315/libs_bin/libcnbpcmcm315.so when searching for -lcnbpcmcm315
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lcnbpcmcm315
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [cif] Error 1

Currently, I am running debian on my nas-01g (planex network attached storage) of ppc nature. May I how do I resolve the issue above? Many thanks for your time to read through this post, really hope that someone can give me some directions on resolving the problem...

cheers,
ed

Hi,


I tried to install the pixma ip1500 on my AMD 64 box.

I installed successfully the following packages
Code:

[ebuild   R   ] net-print/cups-1.3.7-r1  USE="X dbus jpeg pam png ppds -acl -avahi -java -kerberos -ldap -nls -perl -php -python -samba -slp -ssl -static -tiff -zeroconf" LINGUAS="fr -de -en -es -et -he -it -ja -pl -sv -zh_TW" 0 kB
[ebuild   R   ] net-print/bjfilter-2.50-r7  USE="amd64 ip1500 -ip1000 -ip3100 -ip4100 -ip8600 -nocupsdetection -servicetools" 0 kB [1]


Then I restart cups and install my printer. Here is what I have in the HTML cups interface (in french)

Code:

Marque et modèle : Canon PIXMA iP1500 Ver.2.50
État de l'imprimante : ne fait rien, accepte les tâches, publique.
URI du matériel : usb://Canon/iP1500


When I launch a test page, nothing happens : here is what I have on /var/cups/error.log

Code:

I [10/Aug/2008:14:39:05 +0200] [Job 89] Adding start banner page "none".
I [10/Aug/2008:14:39:05 +0200] [Job 89] Adding job file of type application/postscript.

I [10/Aug/2008:14:39:06 +0200] [Job 89] Completed successfully.



Any ideas ?
