Gimp andTurboPrint

I use TurboPrint 2.x to print from Gimp 2.6.2 on my desktop computer running Ubuntu 8.04. I would like to print from a remote laptop computer running Ubuntu 8.10 using a wireless connection and still be able to use TurboPrint. Has anyone any experience of this or any idea on how to achieve it, please?

Hello!

What is that "turboprint" and how does it work? If it just makes printers available via cups, there should be no problem. If it works with Ubuntu 8.04 but not with 8.10, that would be an Ubuntu problem and the Ubuntu people should work on it. Printing through a network (as you seem to want to do) works as well or bad with GIMP as with any other application, wireless or by cable.

TuboPrint is a piece of commercial software which I happen to find an excellent companion to Gimp for producing colour images and, yes, It works with Ubuntu 8.04 and 8.10. I posed my question here because I believe I am not the only Gimp user who uses TurboPrint and someone may be able to advise me on how to achieve what I want via CUPS.

There should be no problem using TurboPrint to print over network. If you check the TP manual (http://www.turboprint.info/manual.html), chapter 6 you will find a description. You must ensure CUPS on the printserver accepts print over net for the printer, if you have a firewall open port 631 and probably configure the client with "other (CUPS URI)" connection and a url like ipp://servername/printers/printername.

Ahaf.
