Unfortunately, GIMP-Print does not support this model, but "Foomatic +
cdj970" supports at least double-sided printing. It seems that the
GIMP-Print team is mainly concerned about Epson. One should suggest them
to support this printer, because it is an excellent piece of hardware,
as I know the only inkjet with duplex and it needs not more space than a
usual inkjet.
It seems that GIMP-Print does not support CRET III, CRET II support was
recently added to the CVS of GIMP-Print.
Removing printers:
The removal must be done on the machine where the queue for the printer
was created, usually on the machine where the printer is connected to.
Check the /etc/cups/printers.conf file. It has an entry for every
printer. When one removes a printer, the appropriate entry is deleted.
Check the permissions of /etc/cups/printers.conf, remove the undesired
entry manually and restart the CUPS daemon.
On clients the printer disappears only after a timeout of five minutes.
Restart the daemon there to let the entry appear immediately.
