same here. I think we have to compile the rastertops fodler but compile gives error.

Sorry guys, I didn't write this library I just published it for people who didn't receive the drivers/don't have the source. Please report back here for other people if you happen to figure it out!

[mckaygerhard]

so @IntegersOfK the problem its that there's no source, from where you grab the files?

[IntegersOfK]

I took the files directly from a mini CD that was provided with the printer when I bought it off AliExpress. In this case, isn't the "source" just the rasterpos folders, which is simply the CUPS description of how to format the output when sending it to the printer? Anyway I'm sorry but that's all I got, I just put it online because I couldn't find even that anywhere. As I mention in the README, I think it's based off another common printer (ZJ-58 thermal printer) so maybe you can find that and adapt it?

[mckaygerhard]

maybe we all can adapt to those lnux are not complaint with! currently i very busy with guachi framework (comming soon by master vitronic) but i'm very interesting in the topic due i have a printer nd dont remenber how i put to work

of course i do not work win winbuntu so when i setup i give steps for debian and/or alpine..

[mckaygerhard]

ok seems the raster does not work in newer versions of cups.. that-s i can do for! so those that wants the printer working can download one version of venenux and ask at the gitlab repo, i do not use winbuntu

if some on can get working this in newer version of linux 32 or 64 bit please report it here or in https://gitlab.com/osposweb/osposweb/issues/48
