HP DeskJet 340C
 
Color inkjet printer, max. 600x300 dpi, works Perfectly
Recommended Driver: gutenprint (Home page)
Generic Instructions: CUPS, no spooler
 

Miscellaneous

Printer supports direct text printing with the 'us-ascii' charset.

Comments

For basic printing functionality use the HPIJS driver . For advanced functionality such as printer status and maintenance features, use the HPLIP driver (which includes HPIJS).

Note: The maximum resolution in color is 300x300.

Use the "gimp-print"/"stp" or "pcl3"/"hpdj" driver.

The best output quality you will get with the "gimp-print" driver, it also handles the ink more economically.

If you have Gimp-Print 4.1.6 or older installed, you should upgrade to a newer version, because the old versions "print" blank lines instead of simply advancing the paper fastly.

Consumables/Refills: cartridge, about $25 USD
