|

This intelligent backend is needed to utilize many common dye-sublimation
|
||||
photo printers under Linux, OSX, and other UNIX-like operating systems.
|
||||
|
||||
Although these printers advertise themselves as standard USB Printer Class
|
||||
devices, they do not actually obey those specifications, and require
|
||||
two-way communications in order to successfully print.
|
||||
|
||||
If you do not have one of the printers listed above, this backend is
|
||||
not relevant for you and you can just ignore everything below.
|
||||
|
||||
In order to properly utilize this backend, you must have an up-to-date
|
||||
version of Gutenprint (5.2.10) installed.
|
||||
|
||||
Once Gutenprint and this backend are installed, if you are using up-to-date
|
||||
versions of CUPS (1.6.4 or newer) on Linux, then your system will
|
||||
automatically select this backend if you plug in one of its supported
|
||||
printers. No further intervention on the user's part should be necessary.
|
||||
|
||||
Unfortunately, if you are using an older version of CUPS or a non-Linux
|
||||
system (particularly OSX) then you will need to manually configure the
|
||||
use of this backend, as the system will automatically attempt to use the
|
||||
default backend which does not work with these printers.
|
||||
|
||||
To do this, you will need to remove the printer that was automatically
|
||||
added by your system then manually add a new one, taking care to select
|
||||
the correct backend ("gutenprint52+usb"). Instructions on how to do this
|
||||
are beyond the scope of this document; please see the CUPS documentation.
|
||||
|
||||
Once the printer is properly configured, this backend will be automatically
|
||||
invoked as needed; the user will never invoke the backend directly.
|
||||
|
||||
***************************************************************************
|
||||
|
||||
This backend also supports a "standalone" mode that performs various
|
||||
utility functions for selected printers, such as querying status.
|
||||
The exact commands supported for each printer are documented below.

|

CUPS backend usage:
|
||||
|
||||
The simple method is to use Gutenprint 5.2.10 or newer, which bundles
|
||||
(possibly older versions of) this backend. Without Gutenprint to
|
||||
rasterize the print data, this backend is useless.
|
||||
|
||||
The backend is called 'gutenprint52+usb', and must be installed with 0700
|
||||
file permissions and owned by root in order to function properly.
|
||||
|
||||
To install this backend for use with CUPS, simply type 'make install'.
|
||||
|
||||
You may need to restart CUPS afterwards.
