Re: [Gimp-print-devel] canon cp910

Hello,

only some additional information (I don't have such a printer
so that I cannot reproduce or actually test anything here):

This model is not listed at

openSUSE 13.2 provides Gutenprint 5.2.10 and by default CUPS 1.5.4.

I assume your printer is connected via USB and you use the CUPS
backend 'usb', see "What is a CUPS backend and how does it work?" at
https://en.opensuse.org/SDB:CUPS_in_a_Nutshell

CUPS 1.5.4 provides the traditional 'usb' backend that uses the usblp
kernel module.

Perhaps it makes a difference whether or not the new libusb-based
'usb' backend is used?

The new libusb-based 'usb' backend is provided by CUPS 1.7.5
that is available for openSUSE 13.2 from the openSUSE build
service development project "Printing" e.g. from this URL
http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/Printing/openSUSE_13.2/
but before you install RPMs from the "Printing" project read
https://build.opensuse.org/project/show/Printing


FWIW:
There is no "Canon SELPHY CP910" in a CUPS usb quirk file
on openSUSE 13.2 with Gutenprint 5.2.10 and CUPS 1.7.5:
