foo2lava is an open source printer driver for printers that use the
Zenographics LAVAFLOW wire protocol for their print data, such as the
Konica Minolta magicolor 2530 DL or the Konica Minolta magicolor 2490
MF. These printers are often erroneously referred to as winprinters or
GDI printers. However, Microsoft GDI only mandates the API between an
application and the printer driver, not the protocol on the wire
between the printer driver and the printer. In fact, LAVAFLOW printers
are raster printers which happen to use a very efficient wire protocol
which was developed by Zenographics and licensed by most major printer
manufacturers for at least some of their product lines. LAVAFLOW is
just one of many wire protocols that are in use today, such as
Postscript, PCL, Epson, ZjStream, etc.
This driver uses Ghostscript to perform all of the heavy lifting
(image processing). There are five major components to the foo2lava
printer driver.
* foo2lava - the page image to protocol conversion engine of the driver.
* foo2lava-wrapper - a shell script (compatible with foomatic)
which runs ghostscript and foo2lava in a pipeline.
* icc2ps - converts an ICM color profile to a Postscript CRD,
which is then fed into Ghostscript before the users Postscript
program.
* foomatic-db - foomatic database entries which describe the
supported printers and their options so that printer spoolers know how
to access the printer using foo2lava-wrapper.
* lavadecode - a tool for developers to inspect LAVAFLOW streams.
You can read the manual pages for more information.
Download and Install
Click the link, or cut and paste the whole command line below to
download the driver.
$ wget -O foo2zjs.tar.gz http://foo2zjs.rkkda.com/foo2zjs.tar.gz
Now unpack it:
Unpack:
$ tar zxf foo2zjs.tar.gz
$ cd foo2zjs
Now compile and install it. The INSTALL file contains more
detailed instructions; please read it now.
Compile:
$ make
Get extra files from the web, such as .ICM profiles for color
correction,
and firmware. Select the model number for your printer:
$ ./getweb 2530 # Get Konica Minolta magicolor 2530 DL .ICM
files
$ ./getweb 2490 # Get Konica Minolta magicolor 2490 MF .ICM
files
Install driver, foomatic XML files, and extra files:
$ su OR $ sudo make install
# make install
(Optional) If you use CUPS, restart the spooler:
# make cups OR $ sudo make cups
Now create printer entries for your spooler. Create at least one
queue for monochrome, and another queue for color printing. Create the
queues first, then edit them and set the device options as desired.
See your operating system documentation for further details on
creating a printer queue. Click any hyperlinks below for sample
screenshots.
