Hi, I've updated the package to the latest version, and will keep it up to date in the future :) Happy labeling!

Please be aware the dependencies have changed for blabel, and that you need to install perl-net-cups from AUR.

How to fix "CUPS.xs:15:11: fatal error: cupsfilters/image.h: No such file or directory"

If perl-net-cups fails with the fatal error mentioned above, then you need to install cups-filters to fix it. I have already requested the maintainer of perl-net-cups to update his package with this dependency.

How to fix "Can't locate Net/CUPS.pm in @INC (you may need to install the Net::CUPS module)"

If you see this error, then you may need to install perl-net-cups, if you have install perl-net-cups then you probably had perl upgraded but perl-net-cups is still in an old path, the fix then is to first uninstall perl-net-cups and re-install it to place it in the correct path.

@simona please provide more details, your comment is not helpful. What errors are you getting? Did you make sure to install all dependencies? Did you read the pinned comment?

do not compile

@pappl do you have all the dependencies installed?

The error message suggests that you need to install the Net::CUPS module -- if I remember correctly that should be in the perl-net-cups package.

Blabel force closes immediately.

Works out of the box on Manjaro KDE. Install via AUR in Pamac. Plug in via USB (Printer switch on position E), power on. Open printer settings in manjaro -> Unlock -> Add printer button -> Install as Generic (recommended) - Text only printer -> OK Open Blabel app -> Print Great. I'm happy

@bofh1337 Thanks for the report, I have added perl-gd as a dependency to the package. Good to see that you resolved your issue.

@Alpha_Seven I got gd installed, but perl-gd was not installed. Installing it fixed the problem. So its a missing dependency i guess. Thank you.

I already tried installing gd with cpan and that doesn´t worked.

@bofh1337 Do you have GD installed? On my computer I find:

$ sudo pacman -Q|egrep "^gd |perl-gd"

gd 2.3.0-1

perl-gd 2.71-1

blabel stopped printing in my case. It seems to be missing the GD module:

@Alpha_Seven Packages installed from the AUR, which have dependencies on other packages in the AUR, does not install those dependencies automatically. You'll have to resolve those yourself. Only packages in the community repo is installed automatically when you install the blabel package. In this case perl-net-cups is an AUR dependency and has to be resolved manually.
