Another (NEW) Canon Printer Problem
Hi all,
havig struggled for nearly a week to get my Canon Pixma ip1900 to work on Ubuntu, I finally did, thanks to a lot of googling and forum browsing. Extracted drivers, changed references to libcupsys2, changed filter permissions, dpkg -i --force-architecture (I'm on 64 bit), etc. And it worked wonderfully. Until last week. Now, when I try and print, I get nothing. Zip. Just a message in Printing: /usr/lib/cups/filter/pstocanonij failed pstocanonij is present in the directory. I haven't, to my knowledge changed anything. I have reinstalled the drivers, restarted cups, but to no avail. Anybody have any ideas?? I really need to get this going. I would get a more linux friendly printer, but I am on a tight budget for the time-being. Would be most grateful for assistance! |
Update:
Tried adding the printer via the Cups server (localhost:631). Problem persists, but this time I checked the error log, and found these messages: /usr/lib/cups/filter/pstocanonij: No such file or directory (/usr/lib/cups/filter/pstocanonij) stopped with status 22! I have checked, the file is definitely present where it should be, and also appears in /lib64. Permissions are set correctly. I am at my wits end. Incidentally, I tried the printer on my desktop (running 10.04 i386), and it works fine, so this seems to be an amd64 issue. Any ideas?? |
