Bob,

GDI (Graphics Device Interface) is just the name of a set of drawing functions in Windows.

The foo2hiperc driver basically translates a postscript file to the printer's native raw data format (hiper-c).

So eCUPS has to be configured to generate postscript output and then use this driver to generate the printer data.

I hope this clarifies a bit

I don't know if the C5510 printer is supported, but there's a Linux driver foo2hiperc for Okidata's hiper-c protocol, see http://foo2hiperc.rkkda.com

Works for me in Ubuntu (Oki C5200).

You need to build this driver for OS/2 and configure eCups, maybe Paul Smedley can help you.

Leonard, are you using Wireless to upload the file? You could be having some packet-loss that way if so.

Ok, I created a new file using Winzip 11.1. I'm going to upload it tonight. It is updated and includes the SmartSVN project, so one can just work on the project and commit changes directly from the trunk on the local file system to Netlabs SVN.

In fact I'm using a WIFI connection, but it's the only one I have, so if I'm loosing packets,, we are f..ed

Thanks

Leonardo, did you upload the file ?
The DIINO share appears to be empty.

Darn!.... I hate this s....!. I checked the file and it's ok on my disk. There must be a configuration somewhere on the way you transmit files, maybe BIN or ASCII mode or something like that.

I'm pretty lost right now. I'll have to think of something else.

Thanks

I don't think that there's a configuration problem because I was able to extract the VMC file.

There are 2 options :
1. There's a problem in DIINO's upload or download protocol and then we should report this to DIINO.
2. There's a compatiblity issue in my our your zip tool.
Which tool do you use to create the zipfile ? I'm using WinZip 11.0 to extract the files.

Thanks

I'm going to upload the file again tonight.

Thanks

Leonardo,

The new file swtos2_20080618.zip is also corrupt.
I did a binary file compare and it's exactly the same as the old swtos2.zip file.

Could you check your local zipfile on your PC ?
Could you create a new zipfile and upload it again if it turns out that your local zipfile is bad ?

Thanks,
Michel

The file at Netlabs/incoming is bad. Do not download that,, don't even try. I had no idea that the DIINO file was corrupted. Did you download it?, what happened when you tried?

I've downloaded the DIINO file but encountered a CRC error when trying to extract the VHD file from the zip archive.
I've downloaded the file a second time because I thought that my first download had failed and corrupted the file.
Unfortunately, the second download gave me the same CRC error.
However, I'm able to extract the VMC file without a problem.

Michel

Hi Leonardo,

Could you please check your original swtos2.zip file ?
I don't know were the zipfile corruption started.
The zipfile could have been bad from the beginning or it could have gone bad while uploading to Diino.

Michel

David,

The file at netlabs incoming is 19,60 Mb in size while the file swtos2.zip at Diino is 754,84 Mb.
Something must have gone wrong while uploading to netlabs.

Murphy's law hit me again...
I was able to download the zipfile but couldn't extract the VHD file due to a CRC error.

I thought that something went wrong during the download so I downloaded the zipfile again.
Unfortunately, I got the same CRC error when trying to extract the VHD file, so the original zipfile must be corrupt.

Leonardo, could you please create a new zipfile and upload it again ?

Thanks,
Michel

You could try one of the free online storage services.

Is there anyone who was able to download the zipfile ?
I have tried several days between 8 and 11 PM EST but the file was never shared.
