CanonBJ200
5 messages in this thread
I just got CanonBj-200 printer and I also downloade drivers for it from printer
llibrary in amigasection. I used the font-shop to download a font to my
printer, but when I printed a document (ProWrite3.3) it used a different font.
I tryed a lot of stuff, but no matter what my printer does not print with fonts
I download to it. Can any one help?
It seems like you set your printers dip switches wrong. Make sure the
download buffer is available in the printer. You dip switch settings are
very critical. In case you still have problems, let me know. Any problem
that I can understand/repeat on my system will be fixed in the software.
There is one known bug in the BJ200 and BJC driver (that is fixed in
V1.41, though V1.41 is not uploaded yet because I want the BJC600 driver
too be finished first): a fault in Final Copy causes a fault in the
"Graphics only" emulation to appear… when printing multiple pages, the
second page causes trash to be printed…

I have tried that, it didn't work. Then I set my switch 12 to on (epson
emulation) and used canonBJ-EC and it still had problems. It could be ProWrite.
Any more suggestions?
Wolf, desregard my earlier reply, my problem was that I was using font shop
with the canonBJ-EC driver. I set my switch 12 to BJ10 mode and used BJ200
driver with font shop. Everything worked fine. So, when is the new version of
the canon drivers gonna be uploaded? (grin).
How did you run into this problem? The installation script doesn't install
the FontShop program in case you select the epson driver. In the opposite,
if you install the BJ200 driver as recommend, the CanonBJ-EC driver is not
installed? So what did lead you to install both drivers?
Well, I hope to upload the new BJC600 driver during the next days (I will
finish the driver today), but I don't know when I will upgrade the BJ
driver (it requires ~8 hours spare time to do the job). At least the BJ
driver on that new disk will fix the aRIS problem with Final Copy (some
sort of quick fix, not an upgrade).
