I need a gently caress Printers t-shirt or something like that. We bought a bunch of new Sharp printers, to find out that Sharp on Mac OSX released only the PS drivers. And to enable PS printing, you need to buy a module. What the hell. And my colleague is looking for crazy workarounds (foomatic, gutenprint) which do not state support on those specific printers. gently caress printers.

We ended up using Gutenprint with a completely obscure Sharp driver.

Is this the right thread to complain about how Outlook and GMail IMAP interact? Because trying to move a 21GB pst file into an IMAP account is getting unjustifiably hard. Why does outlook stop every other operation to sync its accounts? Why isn't the default behaviour "sync the whole account not just the main folders" ? Not featured in this post: "why did my outsourced colleague set up POP accounts for such huge mail accounts?" and "why are we using Outlook if we don't have an Exchange server?".

Bob Morales posted:Because it's better than the alternatives. Could you please elaborate? I've found a couple of niggling issues between the Google's IMAP implementation and Outlook, I don't really think it's better than the alternatives.

evol262 posted:I'm still happy with mutt, but Thunderbird and Sparrow beat outlook if all you want is IMAP I'm directly comparing Thunderbird and Office in my company, we're using Google for Business. Outlook sometimes gets stuck synchronizing folders: when it's in this state, it's impossible to send, to move messages or to create new folders because the queue is occupied by a huge sync process.

Sickening posted:Which version of outlook are you using? I have been using imap on 2013 and I haven't had an issue. I am syncing 3 different accounts as well. 2013, automatic updates enabled so I guess I've got the latest Office updates. In this specific instance, I'm trying to move a colleague's account from a POP3 account to an IMAP one, I need to move the entire bulk of messages she has, subfolders included. It somehow doesn't consider a bunch of subfolders and it's not updating them. And in the meanwhile it's not sending messages: I've got a a "Synchronizing account..." activity in the activities window, and I have to stop it to actually send messages. I believe Google's non-standard IMAP implementation has some faults, too. But I'm having no side-effects with Thunderbird.

Rhymenoserous posted:I tried really hard to get us onto google apps, but the gmail interface was literally too much for some people to deal with. I've managed to "sell" Thunderbird since it can actually find old messages while Outlook crashes. The problem now is migrating 10 years old POP3 accounts, with lots of nested subfolders, onto IMAP. One has a 21 GB pst file, 127k messages

Bob Morales posted:Did you see the 100GB one I posted? Our average user is around 15GB Nope.  My migration got stuck 2 more times and it's probably stuck again. And a folder got updated... bad, I dunno, there's a bunch of FOLDER/SUBFOLDER#/SUBSUB## around. edit: yeah, time to get a beer and hit the office. Quit and restart that crap.
