What's the best printer solution now? The only one I've used in openSUSE is HP. I have a Photosmart 7510 that on and off refuses to print landscape. It worked for a long time then quit. (I did ask in this forum and didn't get a good answer.) I found a workaround by having two different drivers. I had one setup using hpijs that printed landscape and everything else from my openSUSE apps. I setup another one using hpcups that printed everything from inside browsers (Chrome) just fine.
That worked fine until this week. First the hpcups one quit printing landscape and now nothing will print landscape from anywhere. The printer setting haven't changed and redoing them didn't help.
I am using 13.1 and update everything it tells me to update. It looks very much like updates are breaking and fixing this. They could be driver updates or Chrome updates or both. It's maddening though. Enough so that I'm ready to switch printers.
This HP is the only printer I've used in openSUSE, but I have used Epson and Canon in Linux Mint in years gone by. Epson needed TurboPrint to make it print right. Canon worked OK, but the printers themselves kept dying.
Does anyone know of a photo quality inkjet printer/driver combination that works and works reliably?
Thanks,
Clyde
