usb printer controller for Linux
2014-10-18 05:04:58
Region : Canada

Model : TL-WDR3600

Hardware Version : V1

Firmware Version : v1_140916

ISP : Teksavvy


The usb printer controller for the wdr3600 works nicely on Windows 7, but when are you guys going to port one to linux.
Perhaps modding the mac version would be a quick way to provide linux users with the utiliy without us having to resort to openwrt or ddwrt, which for linux users seems like overkill.
looking forward to comments and response from the firmware devs, Thanks

I don't think TP-LINK has such plans...

TP-Link now has downloadable source code I'm sure someone will make one.

@BluesKaj, its 5 years later and the issue seems to still exist and is annoying as hell. This stale thread is my best lead towards a resolution so far. 

Can you link any code repos? Are the licenses compatible? Anything done so far?

IMO now it's even worse because printing directly from a phone/tablet is also a thing.

 

I also think that flashing openwrt only to have intra network DNS and a working printer is almost not worth the configuration time :(.

I'd love to have this work out of the box along with most other features of router sotfware.
