I've been trying to get my 5610 printing over the network since the weekend. I didn't even think of looking for a CUPS driver. If you want to enable colour printing from Windows edit this file before installing: cups-windows-6.0\i386\cups6.ppd as follows: Replace the lines: *ColorDevice: False *DefaultColorSpace: Gray with *ColorDevice: True *DefaultColorSpace: CMYK If you have already installed the driver edit the CUPS6.PPD file under the C:\WINDOWS directory the same way, delete and reinstall the printer. You should see: Color: Yes In the Features box in the printer properties HTH, Jim Thanks for the tip! I’ve been trying to get my 5610 printing over the network since the weekend. I didn’t even think of looking for a CUPS driver.

If you want to enable colour printing from Windows edit this file before installing:
cups-windows-6.0i386cups6.ppd
as follows:
Replace the lines:
*ColorDevice: False
*DefaultColorSpace: Gray
with
*ColorDevice: True
*DefaultColorSpace: CMYK

If you have already installed the driver edit the CUPS6.PPD file under the C:WINDOWS directory the same way, delete and reinstall the printer.

You should see:
Color: Yes
In the Features box in the printer properties

HTH,

Jim
