Picked this printer up mainly for the wife and her work, but I'd also
love to use it without having to resort to a Windows VM. I extracted
the PPD for both Windows and Mac to poke at it, but it references a
few programs that aren't supported on Linux.
I've looked at Turbo Print - https://turboprint.info/
<https://turboprint.info/> - and I certainly don't mind paying for a
driver if it fills the need I have. I know the Pro-300 is pretty new,
so I'm wondering if anyone on the list has either:
* Used the Turbo Print driver for the Canon imageprograf Pro-1000 with
the Pro-300.
* Or used a generic Postcript Level 3, CUPS, or similar driver for it
I may end up contacting the Turbo Print folks to see if they're
working on a pro-300 driver, but I figured it couldn't hurt to hit up
this list as well. :)
Thanks in advance,
Will
It looks like this printer supports Ethernet\WiFi connection, so there
is a possibility you can print directly [1] to it, using IPP or another
protocol.
