A few weeks back, I was the first person to print in color with that printer. See previous post. Now Some people are complain because they are only able to print in greyscale. This is how I resolved:. Create a new printer called HPColor as Printer name. Modify file /etc/cups/ppd/HPColor.ppd: *FoomaticRIPCommandLine: "foo2hp2600-wrapper %A" to *FoomaticRIPCommandLine: "foo2hp2600-wrapper -c %A" Good Luck!!!.

Yes, now we can print in color with this hp. Thanks for your help. But,…I sent a photo to the device and the result was in colors but quality wasn’t very good. Do you know how to improve quality?
Thanks a lot

Amazing. After a slight headache, I succeeded to install this cheap but very practical printer on my Linux Suse. Great and many thanks Cheche.

Well, it worked, but is not a very satisfactory solution yet… maybe the guys from HPLIP will release a good driver for this good printer.
Any news, please contact me!
And the quality is reasonable.

From not working at all, worked like a breeze on my Mandriva 2005 system.
Color resolution needs improving though, but hey, its bearable for my needs !

Thanks a lot!
I was only able to print in monochrome on my 2600n from Ubuntu Dapper, but now i can print in full color. Once again, thank you!

Hi !
I installed the foo2hp driver whitout any problem but when i print a picture, it really doesn’t look good. It is alligator-skinned (like someone else said). Does someone know how to fix this ?
thanks

Hi, does anyone have an image of the resulting colors on paper? I am considering whether to buy the printer and would like to know how bad the colors show.
