Thanks! I didn’t have the icc profiles correctly set, which might be one of the problems with my setup.

I was initially having issues with the Raster2CanonIJS and Command2CanonIJ binaries (that I copied to /usr/lib/cups/filter): cups was raising some errors when executing the scripts. But after fixing those, I wouldn’t get any further errors or warnings, although the printer would simply be unresponsive while the job was set as “completed”. I will check if the problem was the lack of icc profiles under /usr/share/color/icc.

That I understand, but my problem is the ppd file includes paths like *cupsFilter: "application/vnd.cups-command 0 /Library/Printers/Canon/BJPrinter/Filters/Command2CanonIJ.bundle/Contents/MacOS/Command2CanonIJ". I extracted those binary files too, put them in a cups folder, and adapted the path to point at the correct locations, but the scripts don’t seem to work on Linux. Same thing for the turboprint thing, the commands like (canontoturboprint) are not doing anything from what I can tell

I could successfully decompress all the relevant files from the dmg file. Now I need to figure out a way of properly installing them in a cups directory. For instance, I don’t know where I should put /Library/Printers/Canon. But it seems to me that I have all the files required to make it work.

Thanks for the recommendation! I tried both, but sadly it didn’t work.

I could extract the ppd file from the MacOS driver, but I still need to substitute some OS specific paths that lead to executable files and icc profiles, like *cupsFilter: "application/vnd.cups-raster 0 /Library/Printers/Canon/BJPrinter/Filters/Raster2CanonIJ/Raster2CanonIJS.bundle/Contents/MacOS/Raster2CanonIJS". Not that many, just two or three. I will most likely try to install the drivers on a MacOS VM and see if I can extract those files and place them in a Linux-specific cups directory (/usr/lib/cups or something). I think so far the odds are even.

Update: It looks like I have all the binary files with me. Raster2CanonIJS, Command2CanonIJ, the ICC profiles and whatnot. I’m now looking for some guidance on where I should place those files on Linux, that would belong in /Library/Printers/Canon/..., etc. on MacOS.

Thanks! It seems like the “dead link” is just telling us how to install any printer using CUPS, sadly. But the second link might help me, given that I can try to extract a ppd driver from the provided macOS drivers.

You are right, those are contradictory. I meant doing it for now and sandboxing the VM while I work on finding a solution. I’m now trying to extract the useful part of the MacOS drivers and see if I can run it natively on Linux.

Edit: I edited the original post slightly to address your point, which I fully agree with.

Haha, now I can’t unsee it! I guess the whole thing was more obvious in person.

Thanks! I saw the framing and stood there for some time until I spotted the caring mom and her baby. I thought it was a really affectionate scene, so I shot it and kept it. It wasn’t my favorite photo I took that day, but somehow it appealed to my partner and a couple friends, so I decided to post it.

I also agree that I hope the street photography community flourishes. I will try to keep posting there regularly, to see if we can bring some engagement back. I truly want to see the fediverse thriving!

Haha, yes, I’m glad they chose not to!

Gorgeous view!

Yes, fully open aperture, long exposure (6"), and high ISO. I tried to recover the yellows that were (much) more apparent to the naked eye, and this made it look more saturated

I had to use both since I don’t own a nice camera or lenses. I think exposure time was around 6 seconds. If you darken it by 2EV, it should be close to how it looked to the naked eye

Thanks! All credit goes to the steller model!

Don’t forget to post the pics here!

Eventually, you might wanna keep it as a “compact” camera to use when traveling light. I usually advocate towards never hoarding stuff you likely won’t need, but in this case maybe your dad would appreciate sticking to DSLRs. This is very personal and my opinion only, so ultimately it’s up to you

It definitely took me way too long to get a good picture of them after the sighting!

I would suggest checking “sold items” on eBay (there’s a filter for that, or add &LH_Complete=1 to your link). You’ll see that body-only Canon M10 cameras are actually being sold for around USD 180 or GBP 145. Those that are more expensive usually include lenses or other accessories. Sellers can always charge how much they want, but whether listings will be successful is a different question.

Yes! I also think that it’s really cute. I miraculously got four good shots of this little guy and had a hard time deciding which one it looked the cutest. Ten minutes later, I got a picture of a steller’s jay showing off its crest that I liked too and just posted!

I’m impressed you shot this on a Ricoh GR. Looks fantastic!

I understand it this way: you get confused because you try to decide what the cam should do before you know what the cam should do :-)

As an explanation, I can only guess that your capture device/software has sent some command to the cam, and got that result.

You are absolutely correct. My TV supports HDMI-CEC, so if “Device control” is set to “On” under the “HDMI” tab, the camera will display a slideshow whenever connected to a HDMI-CEC device. If “Device control” is set to “Off” or if the screen doesn’t support CEC, then a mirrored image of the camera’s screen will be transmitted.

You can check my main post edit for details.

I really appreciate your help!
