Amazing. I just recently read the story of that typeface being sunk there and considered it lost. The older I get, the more fascination comes from old-school printing and writing facilities and the idea of keeping information on paper, no matter how much effort it takes compared to digital means.

4. HAPPY LABELING 🙂

(print some nice sentences… and make ’em stick… e.g. to a traffic light post… )

for example:

it can do pictures fairly fast…

“fascinating” isn’t it?

GNU Linux & sustainability: waste avoided & resources saved - another printer saved from trash - Brother MFC-8420 works perfectly fine with GNU Linux Debian 10

actually wanted give this printer to (still) windows user, then realizing… there is no f*** chance to install drivers within windows 10 for this elderly but just printing damn fine reliable black and white laser printer from brother, so…

fiddled a bit with the cups (reachable via browser localhost:631)

try modyfing the Connection type… then try printing those settings worked 🙂

thanks all involved!

GNU Linux for the sustainability win & waste avoided & resources saved!

Je continue dans mes essais de linogravure, un peu plus grand (A5).
J'ai encore de mal mais ça vient petit à petit, je commence aussi à être plus efficace sur l'impression, ça bave moins (même si ça manque de finesse dans le trait :/ )
Mais je continue et j'insiste !

Linogravure de nowel

Je prépare mes cadeaux de nowel, je me suis remis à la linogravure. Je suis partie sur une série de marque-page. Celui-là c'est pour ma grande, plutôt en accord avec son actualité.
Du coup je ferai quelques tirages en différentes couleurs (pas géniaux les tirages à la cuillère en bois...)
Je considère celle-ci comme la première des mais gravures vraiment aboutie.

(Sauras-tu reconnaître qui que c'est ?)
