pyToneRIP 1.0.0.248 Beta

This prerelease adds the Epson ET-18100/L18050/L8050 family, model-specific print-stream corrections, direct-USB cancellation finalization, and photo cropping/fill controls in the optional Soft Proof preview.

Printer support

  • New separate entries for Epson EcoTank ET-18100, Epson L18050 and Epson L8050, with audited modes, paper selectors, drop levels, margins and available borderless formats.
  • Corrected leading/trailing pass planning for P50/T50/T60 and the applicable Stylus Photo R models, preserving model-specific origins and head offsets.
  • Corrected separate head/feed geometry and edge handling for ET-14000/ET-14100, ET-8500/ET-8550/L8160/L8180, ET-18100/L18050/L8050 and F500. The P50 correction is not enabled globally.
  • T3200/T5200/T7200 use their verified firmware-weave transport path; F500 has corrected mode-dependent drop depth and command geometry.
  • Replaced the incompatible T5400 catalog/profile with its own 20 paper entries, 36 mode rows, 23 fixed page sizes, physical feed choices and verified paper-selector codes. Existing T5400 users may need to select paper and mode again.

USB and preview

  • Improved USB discovery matching for repeated manufacturer prefixes, including P50.
  • Added abort/finalization handling for direct USB cancellation on P50/T50/T60 and ET-18100/L18050/L8050, with sheet ejection on sheet jobs and no added form feed on roll jobs.
  • Added four side crop handles, separate from the corner resize handles, and icon buttons with tooltips for Fit Photo to Page and Fill Photo to Page.
  • Preserved crop/rotation through job updates without replacing original 16-bit image resources with preview pixels.
  • Preserved Photo Placement when Soft Proof is toggled or refreshed.

The 8-bit and 16-bit processing paths remain independent. Soft Proof remains optional: use a print ICC profile or compare the built-in paper/OBA and D50-D65 viewing-light simulations. Preview controls do not modify the selected .quad printing curves.

Validation and beta scope

Sources were transferred using the curated publication script and verified by file contents. All 67 targeted USB, new-family and photo-placement checks passed. The complete runtime, Manager MSIX and installer were built and checked from the publication checkout.

Physical improvement at the start of printing was confirmed on the tested P50 setup. Stream reconstruction on other models is not a substitute for physical testing. T5400 secondary nozzle banks are not implemented. Roll/borderless operation, physical cancellation/ejection and additional printer/paper combinations still need hardware validation. The previously reported P900 configuration issue is not confirmed resolved.

Install

Windows 11 x64 build 26100 or later is required. Run pyToneRIP-Setup-1.0.0.248-Beta.exe, approve the administrator request and add your printer in the Manager.

The bootstrap EXE is not Authenticode signed. Its MSIX payload uses the development signing certificate; the installer imports the public certificate into the local machine's Trusted People store. Windows can display a publisher/SmartScreen warning.

Installer size: 68,758,557 bytes.
