This is perfect! My LBP3050 works without doing anything but adding a printer. Very very thanks. (づᴗ͈ˬᴗ͈)づ♡ (ˊᗜˋ)/ᵗᑋᵃᐢᵏ ᵞᵒᵘ

@Potomac, while it is not in active development, it is maintained by mounaiban. And yes, it works, I use it daily with a LBP2900B, so there is no reason why it shouldn't work with your LBP3000, as long as you follow the instructions.

Does this driver still in development ?

I have a canon LBP3000 printer, I want to know if this open-source driver works with this model ?

Thanks

@socialolive, I couldn't reproduce the issue on my end, but maybe that's cause I already set LC_ALL=C on my system anyway.

Switched to make ppd with the latest commit. Thanks for bringing this to my attention and pointing it out.

I had issues on my LBP2900 ("CAPT: no pages in job" error) preventing any printing job to complete. This was caused by PPD files being incorrectly generated.

Executing the make ppd command instead of ppdc -v -d . src/canon-lbp.drv provided correct results. Difference seems to be related to LC_ALL=C variable.

@avencores, make and autoconf are part of the base-devel package group, and are assumed to be already installed when using makepkg.

Quoting the PKGBUILD guidelines at: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/PKGBUILD,

The package base-devel is assumed to be already installed when building with makepkg. Dependencies of this package should not be included in makedepends or checkdepends array.

add the "make autoconf" packages to the dependency list

can confirm, "just works" for LBP2900 in 2023

Just install it for Canon LBP2900, works.

@OramahMaalhur : I think you should add a post_install() function, same function as this other canon capt driver (see capt-src.install file) : https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/capt-src/

Because additional manual steps may be needed after the installation of the package :

/usr/bin/lpadmin -p <name> -m <corresponding ppd> -v ccp://localhost:59687 -E /usr/bin/ccpdadmin -p <name> -o udev_device
