I have a Canon Maxify 2750.
Up until now I’ve been using the standar linux drivers for it but they have a serious limitation I really need to solve which is I can only print one page at a time, on one sheet of paper. Printer is capable of full duplex printing.
If been able to install the drivers before but now I’me being confronted with an unexpected _"("_ error. Nothing more, nothing less.
I run the install script and it just fails.
Can someone lend a hand on this, please?
I’ve installed the gutenprint driver but my specific printer is not listed as a supported model. Testing it as I write this but with no particular hopes…
edit: and no, it still prints one sheet at a time, no duplex, and it botching the image printing quality
I found it listed under gimp-print.sourceforge.io/p_Supported_Printers.php listed as Experimental. Gutenprint is originally Gimp-Print.
It’s labelled as “Canon MAXIFY MB2750” on that page. In the terminal, what’s the output of:
?
I haven’t installed the GUI
The printer remains as is, faulty
From screenshots of having the GUI installed (It’s looking like some sort of Web Config or Printer Settings pave that has toggles for 2-Sided/Duplex printer, as well as playing with the quality of the print jobs. Maybe I was misunderstanding thr purpose of the gutenprint-printer-app
Give it a go, we’re curious, and I’m invested in you overcoming this silly printer hoops-and-loops getting just the basic features ironed out.
Do it. Do it now.
