gutenprint

Here you will find pre-compiled debian packages of the gutenprint project's software for the Asus Eee PC running Asus Xandros Linux. Built and tested on the Eee 701 / 4G.

Description

Gutenprint delivers high quality printer rivers for inkjets, dye sublimation printers, and PCL lasers.

More information and download for other linux distributions

Project homepage: http://gimp-print.sourceforge.net/

Project downloads: http://gutenprint.sourceforge.net/p_Download.php

Remarks for the Eee debian packages / installation

The packages offered here are of version 5.0.2. A listing of the supported printers you'll find at:

Please note, that more printers may be supported, that are not listed there! For instance, my Canon i455 runs well with the driver for the Canon Multipass MP150. More information for your printer you'll find at the OpenPrinting.org project at http://openprinting.org/.

Initial Situation

In general the Eee 701 used to have gutenprint version 5.0.0 installed. See "dpkg" listing:

ii  ijsgutenprint          5.0.0-3   inkjet server - Ghostscript driver for Gutenprint
ii  libgutenprint2         5.0.0-3   runtime for the Gutenprint printer driver library
