Hi, thanks for the reply.
I'm working on diff between 1.0.1 and 1.1.1 to see where the bug was.
However is possible to build Splix without JBIG, that is (I think) the only
part in Splix under patent.
So using
make DISABLE_JBIG=1
make install DISABLE_JBIG=1
is possible to build the Splix driver without the patented software.
In this case the printer that needs JBIG (ex. CLP-600) will not work, but we
can have fresh driver for all other printers (like popular Ml-2010).
From Splix 1.1.1 INSTALL...
Note about the JBIG algorithm:
------------------------------
It seems that this algorithm was previously (is?) patented. To compile
SpliX without using this algorithm please compile and install SpliX by adding
"DISABLE_JBIG=1" to the make line:
$ make DISABLE_JBIG=1
$ make install DISABLE_JBIG=1
