Description

Now, after Till has given you an overview about OpenPrinting, you probably have many questions, for example:

  • How to get started as contributor to OpenPrinting?
  • What can I do if I am not a coder? How do I get printing into my apps?
  • How do I design a driver for a non-IPP legacy/specialty printer?
  • How do I report issues?
  • ...

Till, Aveek, Alexander, Akarshan, Mohammed (and perhaps other people from OpenPrinting) will answer your questions.
