[Gimp-print-devel] Epson ET-M1140 Ecotank

[<te...@yl...>]

Hi,

I can beta testing Gutenprint with Epson ET-M1140 Ecotank,
but needed OS X 10.5 version, it can be 64-bit, because
my machine is Apple Powermac G5 Quadcore 2.5Ghz PPC and maximum
OS for this machine is Mac OS X 10.5. Although I like more
Mac OS X 10.4 (Tiger).

Is there any generic escp2 support, where to start testing?

Some hints how to make 64-bit application for OS X 10.5 (and even OS X  
10.4 PPC) in intel macs:

How to make PPC support for Xcode 4:

and if needed:
== G5-Related Flags for GCC ===
-mcpu=970
This allows the compiler to use instructions only available on the G5  
(also known as 970) processor.

-mtune=970
This tells the compiler to tune code as optimally as it can for the  
G5. This flag can be safely used by itself on code that may run on  
processors other than the G5, because code compatibility is not changed.

-mpowerpc64
In combination with the above flags, this flag tells the compiler to  
enable the G5's native 64-bit long long support for greatly enhanced  
performance when working with long longs. At times, the  
-force_cpusubtype_ALL flag may also be needed.

Best regards,
Tero
