I was about to give up, thinking the hardware was just crap (which in reality - it is), then I tested it with my mac and was able to run 20 prints off in a row with no issues over WIFI. You have to fully powercycle the printer for it to come back, unplugging and rebooting the pi didn't bring it back to life. HOWEVER after about 5 or so the printer stopped responding and I couldn't even see it with lpinfo -v which scans for available printers (more sad faces). USB: success I could print! and subsequent prints worked too!!!īut you couldn't queue another job while one was still running, so I hacked around with tea4cups to introduce a delay after a job finished which worked for a while.

I then painfully compiled the Gutenprint drivers from cvs (5.2.11-CVS) since the support was apparently added. Network with CP900 shows error about not being able to read the memory card on the printer - no prints at all. USB with current (as of writing - Gutenprint 5.2.10) packaged gutenprint/cups off the shelf configuration with a CP900 driver - worked perfectly for the first print (I was so excited), subsequent prints resulted in the printer becoming locked saying 'busy' (sad face). Hopefully this will become visible for anyone having the same issues, so forgive the tonne of keywords for google to find this and save others some pain.Īfter spending 4.5 full days battling with the Canon Selphy CP910 printer with CUPS I'll account for some of the things I tried and end with the final solution.
