LBP-810 not working

Open danage opened this issue 11 years ago • 2 comments

Hello Alex!

First of all: Great project - the Canon proprietary drivers are terrible! I am having problems though running your drivers on a LBP-810. Could you give me some hints for troubleshooting? Here is what I did on Ubuntu 13.10 AMD64:

From within the driver folder: sudo apt-get install build-essential checkinstall automake libcups2-dev libcupsimage2-dev automake automake --add-missing ./configure make sudo cp rastertocapt /usr/lib/cups/filter/

And then, using GUI, installed the Canon LBP-810 USB printer that was found with the LBP-2900 .ppd file that came with the driver.

Now, when printing the test page, it shows "stopped".

I'm sorry but right now LBP-810 is not supported by this driver. This printer uses different compression algorithm which I haven't coded yet. I plan to support LBP-810 and LBP-1120 right after LBP-2900 support will be complete.

If you know how to program in C, you may help. This isn't very hard.

Regards, Alex

I wish I could :( I am willing to devote time to this though if that helps. I can probably help you debug and troubleshoot, as I have the device at hand.

Thanks much Dennis
