RISC OS Open are pleased to announce the availablility of a new printer dumper for RISC OS. PDumperPCL has been contributed by Herbert zur Nedden and based upon PDumperLJ, this is a dumper designed for PCL printers that support duplex printing, such as the Canon i-Sensys MF4690PL.
At the moment, this is a source code only release, with the source code living in the repository at:
castle/RiscOS/Sources/Printing/PDumpers/PDumperPCL
See the PDumperPCL/!Info file for full details. It should be treated as beta quality code for the time being. The PrintDefs component has also been updated to include a new printer definition file for the printer listed above.
An updated release of !Printers will be made available soon with this new dumper included.
Thanks,
The RISC OS Open team.

As a part of the joint co-operation between RISC OS Open and RISCOS Ltd, we are please to announce the availability of a tool which we hope will help to make life a little bit easier for developers. It is aimed at gathering some specific statistics from a wide range of RISC OS users in order for us to better identify where the main problem areas lie with respect to the differences between the RISCOS Ltd RISC OS branch and the Castle Technology RISC OS branch.
