Seems well, except any printouts are monochrome. 1) connect my Zesty machine to my home network via Wi-Fi 2) connect the printer to my home network via Wi-Fi 3) use system-config-printer, the print queue connected to the printer is automatically added. 4) print some colored from any applications, like Chromium web browser, LibreOffice or else. Expected Result: - documents printed in color. Actual Result: - documents printed in monochrome. NOTE: driverlesstest.ppd, generated by following command is attached: $ lpadmin -p driverlesstest -E -v ipp://EPSONxxxxx.local:631/ipp/print -m everywhere By using FileDevice feature of CUPS, generated CUPS-raster file is already monochrome data. --- $ file /tmp/driverless.prn /tmp/driverless.prn: Cups Raster version 2, Big Endian, 360x360 dpi, 2976x4209 pixels 1 bits/color 1 bits/pixel ColorOrder=Chunky ColorSpace=black --- I guess that the problem is pdftoraster filter generates monochrome data although the generated PPD contains "*ColorDevice: True."
