I mostly work with scores and sorely miss being able to print them! We have two printers here: Epson WF-7510 Kyocera ECOSYS P5021cdn The former works with Gutenprint, and for a while did an alright job, although I note now I get noticeable staircasing in prints and it often mis-picks pages. We've had it for some time so maybe it's just this printer showing its age. A3 is a nice feature, but not something I need every day. The latter was bought to do the bulk of my printing since I got fed up with the page mis-pick issue and the lack of duplex printing. https://stuartl.longlandclan.id.au/blog/2021/06/09/setting-up-a-kyocera-ecosys-p5021cdn-in-cups/ are the steps I followed to set the thing up. It was pretty straightforward, and painless: figure out its IP address, grab the PPD out of Arch Linux's git repository, feed that into CUPS. Setting the same printer up on a Windows 10 machine proved to be more of a challenge: it seems to talk to Linux better than it does Windows. (Thankfully I don't use that legacy OS.) Apparently the Kyocera can be a bit expensive to run in terms of consumables, but given the reduced hair-pulling when I *do* want to print, I'm willing to spend a bit more. -- Stuart Longland (aka Redhatter, VK4MSL) I haven't lost my mind... ...it's backed up on a tape somewhere. _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
