@Frankie The screenshot shows the SavaPage Proxy Print Dialog that connects to a CUPS queue. So, at this point a PS Driver for Windows is irrelevant.
Hi @rijkr ,
Thanks for the reply. How can I get the A3 icon shows on the web app when I select the printer? Thanks!
lpstat no show any erro and I can see A3 in the printer ppd.
*DefaultPageSize: A3
*PageSize A3: “<</PageSize[841.889763779528 1190.551181102362]>>setpagedevice”
*DefaultPageRegion: A3
*PageRegion A3: “<</PageSize[841.889763779528 1190.551181102362]>>setpagedevice”
*DefaultImageableArea: A3
*DefaultPaperDimension: A3
*ImageableArea A3: “11.622047244094 11.622047244094 830.267716535433 1178.929133858268”
*PaperDimension A3: “841.889763779528 1190.551181102362”
And I also add the Mapping PPD to IPP
*VENMedia media
*VENMedia VENA3 iso_a3_297x420mm
*VENMedia *VENA4 iso_a4_210x297mm
*VENMedia VENA5 iso_a5_148x210mm
*VENMedia VENA6 iso_a6_105x148mm
*VENMediaSource media-source
*VENMediaSource *VENAuto auto
*VENMediaSource VENMain main
*VENMediaSource VENTop top
*VENMediaSource VENMiddle middle
*VENMediaSource VENBottom bottom
*VENMediaSource VENBypassTray by-pass-tray
*VENMediaSource VENManual manual
*VENMediaSource VENTray1 tray-1
*VENMediaSource VENTray1 tray-2
*VENMediaSource VENTray1 tray-3
*VENMediaSource VENTray1 tray-4
*VENMediaSource VENTray1 tray-5
I update paper size in every tray to A3 but I still can not get the A3 icon shows.
@Frankie, your PPD to IPP mapping is not correct. You should map the PPD keyword, in your case PageSize to IPP, like this:
*PageSize media
*PageSize A3 iso_a3_297x420mm
*PageSize *A4 iso_a4_210x297mm
*PageSize A5 iso_a5_148x210mm
*PageSize A6 iso_a6_105x148mm
This .ppde file shows how to do this, it also includes other mappings you might need.
Hi @rijkr
As my test in these days, I find out only Windows IPP class driver supports printing to A3. But Windows IPP class driver doesn’t support duplex printing.
My case is ,
I set up the Savapage in ubuntu and created two printers with ipp://printerIP/ipp
I create a print queue IT with two printers.
I install a printer in Win 10, the target is http://SavaPage:8631/printers/IT , the driver is Windows IPP class driver.
With the Windows IPP class driver, A3 or A4 is automactically recogized. But duplex(two sided) setting from Excel/Word can not be tranferred to Savapage with the Windows IPP class driver.
May I have some idea how I can improve the Windows printing experience so that the user print preference can be transferred to SavaPage? Which means what ever user selects in his/her print dialog, the selected parameter can be translated and overwrite the Savapage proxy printer options. Thanks!
