PIXMA iP7250 resolution and paper format

Postby gemorje » Mon Jul 25, 2016 3:11 pm

Hello community,

I try to set up the app to print in a 7x5" format.
I already changed the resolution to 2100x1500 but the printer sticks with 6x4.

Restarting the app (2.5.1) and printer (Canon PIXMA iP7250 via AirPrint) didn't work out.

Any ideas?

Cheers
Mathias

Hi Mathias
The resolution output from wifibooth doesn't affect the print format. The print format can only be set on the printer itself.
To make sure the settings are correct, you can try printing from the Apple Photos app and see if you get the format you desire...?

Hi Tim,

thanks for your update.
With Apple Photos I also get 4x6.

I have tried other apps like LiveBooth or the native Canon print app - both give me the option to define the paper size prior printing.
And it works fine.

Seems like I have to swallow the pill and go to 4x6 if I stick with WifiBooth :|

Thanks for your feedback. I will look more into this for a future version update.

Hi Mathias
I am going to start digging into this in the next few days. At a quick glance it seems doable. It is likely that i will need some testing help: are you able to spend a little time testing a new build for me with new printer paper support, to see if it works in your situation?
Thx
Tim

I added this feature. Please let me know if you're available to test it - send me a private message with your email address.
