Gene Heskett scripsit:
BTDT Nik, even hand edited the ppd. Something in the filters category is
just plain striping 90% of the option stuff in the ppd. TDEPrint seems
to be aware of it, and refuses to even try, so does gv. evince and
okular play dumb and shove it down the pipe anyway, ignoreing the
spillage. What I really expect is for it to start working by the time I
download an official buster image.
Cheers, Gene Heskett

Hi Gene!
I have a MFC-J5320DW. I cannot configure the print quality from TDE,
but I can from the cups web frontend http://localhost:631
There are settings for "paper quality" that affect the print quality,
you might want to test all posible values. Also there is a setting for
"draft" and "ink saving" somewhere.

If you folks can find and solve this problem,
I'd be most
appreciative. I've removed the true filter, leaving enscript,
but that also pops up this error:
The MIME type application/postscript is not supported as input
of the filter chain (this may happen with non-CUPS spoolers when
performing page selection on a non-PostScript file). Do you want
TDE to convert the file to a supported format?
None of the other filter selections materially change this error
message.
I guess you have to look at the cups configuration. If the printer
is properly configured/supported in cups, it should work from kpdf
without issue.
And why it is saying non-CUPS spoolers?
If you don't mind share the model. I am not very knowledgable, but
someone else can help and probably the debian user will be more
fruitful. I stick to B/W HP laser and first I used 5L for
18y which I
replaced last year with another HP.
Most important to configure the cups server - use the cups UI.
Find the model or compatible one (ppd or whatever it is called in
Brother).
Probably been to that rodeo a couple hundred times. It is not
properly configured in cups, doing extremely pastel output. Ink
mileage is of course fantastic since it doesn't use near enough.
Check the packages required and installed - might
be you need the
proper filter package.
I think that highly likely, but no one at cups can tell me what
filter might be missing, and I have installed everything cups
related according to synaptic.
