Hi ! I own a Canon S500 (4 Color Inkjet printer). Canon has ultimately poor support for linux i'll never by a Canon-product again. Unfortunately i bought this one before i abandoned my windows and now i'm stuck with some average drivers of my Fedora linux (FC5). No nozzle check/alignment, no printhead cleaning and bad color-setup/correction. I tried turboprint.de drivers and are they much

Hi all, New member here and new to Linux. Please excuse me if my questions appear a bit dumb. I have just installed CentOS 4 and I am playing around. I must say the install process was fabulous and I had no problems. I am now playing with a few of the apps. I have a Canon Pixma MP780 multi-function centre which was correctly identified by the installer however I cannot find a driver for it and

I have a Canon Pixma MP250 Printer. Tried the Linux drivers and still can't get an ink reading on it. I have tried every single program I can find, from InkBlot to the Canon software that comes with the Linux drivers and none of them will read this silly printer. I didn't have a problem with it under Windows, but am having serious issues with the "genuine" stuff in it so was

In need of a new printer, having done a bit or research, and considering either the Canon PIXMA mg5420 or the HP Photo Smart 7520. There are Linux drivers for the Photosmart which are supposed to handle both the printer and the scanner. But in my research I haven't found (yet) anyone who's gotten the scanner to work with Linux on the Photosmart, let alone the sheet feeder for it.

Hello listmates, xsane on Ubuntu 10 finds that Canon PIXMA via the web and seems to be able to make use of it without a glitch. However, Centos machines sitting on the same net fail to find it. Does anybody know why? Thanks. Boris. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:

Hi all. I would like to print from a Linux Server to a printer connected to a Windows ME machine. I'm able to connect via smbclient, with smbclient //windowsme/printer -U '' -N and I receive the smb> prompt Now, when I try to print any file, nothing comes out from the printer. The printer is a Canon LBP-810 which, according to www.linuxprinting.org site, is a WinPrinter. My

Hello listmates, I am considering getting this multi-functional printer (printer/scanner/fax): http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=6052773&CatId=2709 Has anybody used it under Linux?

I just installed C7 on a new computer and despite Simple Scan being installed as part of C7, I have not been able to get it to recognize my Canon scanner connected to a USB port. I did have it running on another computer with C7 so there should not be any inherent issues. On a lark I installed gscan2pdf and sane-backends-drivers-scanners and sane-find-scanner found it: found USB scanner

My apologies for this because it is, technically, OT, but it is a classic example of what rotten support Linux (and CentOS) get in the US from equipment manufacturers. The whole email is a lie because they DO have the drivers on their asia site, they just don't want us 'Murkins to get our hands on them. Or maybe it's part of some clever little nuance of their agreement with Micro$oft

Hello, I'm new to WINE and cannot get a windows desktop publishing program to print. Wine's notebook prints, so I know WINE can reach my printer (Canon Pixma IP4200). What can I do to get my Quark program to use the same drivers? When I try to print now, nothing happens -- no messages, nothing. Thanks for any help. Frank

OK, I've tried changing my printcap name from printcap to cups. Printing works fine locally using CUPS on the Samba box. What am I missing here? Why can't I print to the Samba box via the Windows and linux clients? Shared directories work fine. I am really frustrated here and have exhausted Google and all other resources I have. Here's my smb.conf for what it's worth.

Oldest son came back from college and wants a printer for his Dell laptop. I built it with CentOS 5.3 x86_64 several months ago and will upgrade it to 5.4 The Cannon printer he now has (bought with the laptop and Vista through the university book store), doesn't seem to have linux drivers. I built the machine with Vista and CentOS in dual-boot, so he could manage his iTunes and use the

I've recently attempted to convert from the Adobe PostScript drivers for my Canon BJC=2110 printer over to the native CUPS Windows PS drivers and can't quite get things to work correctly. After deleting the printer on my WinXP SP1 clients, verifying under "Server Properties" that the Adobe driver was removed, then reconnecting to my Samba printer, I connect fine but receive

I've connected a BSD machine to a WinME machine in the office to begin experimenting with samba. I've been messing about with it but I can't get a print of samba files to the WinME printer. My /var/spool/lpd/canon directory contains .config, .seq, status and lock files and a whole bunch of files that aren't getting printed to the remote printer. my .config file has: server=ICE1

Hello, I am testing a new samba share (Version 4.7.1) in order to replace an old samba share (Version 3.5.6). Especially, I am facing issues with Canon MFP "scan to share".
