Gutenprint / CUPS Dye-sublimation drivers

User reported the CP800 failed to print when on battery power, turns out one of the status fields changed causing us to fail.  I believe that's resovled for the older SELPHY CP models, but the newer ones (including the CP790) and the ES series are likely to have a similar problem.

Not sure what can be done about this without getting the battery and experimenting...

K extraction appears to work well, but when printing there's a registration problem.  The black layer appears to print several pixels higher than the color layers.

I'm not sure if this is something that needs a fixed offset applied, or is something that can vary printer-printer.

Dock Plus, Dock Premium.

Might be wifi only though.

Sony sold their printer line to DNP, which rebranded these two models.

Investigate their Spool format, and find out if they need an intelligent backend.

They're an older-generation of the D70 family's.  Data tables are unfortunately embedded inside the drivers, which makes this a lot more challenging. Sigh.

(If nothing else, simply obtaining the RGB->YMC conversion/gamma tables would make the printers immediately useful..)

No documentation, no driver option, no idea how to drive it

Printer supports combining two or three 6x8 prints into 6x14 or 6x20 panoramas. Figure out how to do this.

EK8810 in the APEX system supports:

8x14, 8x16, 8x18, 8x20, 8x22, 8x24, 8x32, and 8x36 print sizes.

(8x32, and 8x36 are presumably only available on 8x12 media)

Figure out how to make this happen. And what needs to be done on the overlapping areas.

This is a rebadged version of the Mitsubishi CP-W5000.   It likely has a unique USB VID/PID but it may also require tweaks to the command stream.

Until someone pops up with one of these, it's not going to happen.

Aka ColorStream D3

They're the same thing, an 8" wide duplex printer. No support in Gutenprint yet.

HiTi supplied source code, in an "open source all rights reserved" drop

it's an "enhanced" verison of the CX02, but it supports sticker media.  Figure out if it has a different USB ID and what all needs changing.

Kodak's feature set refers to a textual "watermark" on the print surface.  This is presumably the same as DNP's "parial matte" feature.

Figure out how to mak ethis happen.

I have a P461 now, and it's different enough to be annoying.

Turns out there are three major families, "roll type", "sheet type" and "card type" and the commands aren't all the same.  !%!%#

Appears to be a rebadged Citizen CX-02 / DNP DS620

Main questions are what the VID/PID/IEEE1284 IDs are, and what firmware features were stripped out vs the other models.

(Eg rewind support, partial matte, and more)

Three-head high-speed model capable of near-arbitary print lengths.

Duplexing 6" model. Unfortunately will need sniffs.

It would be really nice if we could figure out how to query the UP-DR200's printer status, media counts, flow control, etc etc.

h == Normal Quality

q == High Quality

p/m/r == ???

There's also the LUT files with H/M/T quality codes.

(Includes rebranded variants like Kodaks..)

A user has a EK305 that cuts about 1mm off.  Mitsubshi's service manuals reference a "Service Tool" that can adjust this calibration (and other things)

It's a card-sized variant of the CS2.  89mm cards of various widths.

And other members of that consumer printer family.  Not sure if they're still relevant commercially.

This references a lot of firmware images, including 'Firmware CP9600 for 13x18,10x15(x2),11.5x15(x2).zip -- None of those sizes are covered in the current Gutenprint code.

The command I know about just returns an endless status stream..
