Trouble using Canon printer in Peppermint OS 3
I'm having trouble using my printer.
As suggested by the title, the distro install is Peppermint OS 3. The kernel version is 3.2.0-23-generic. The driver I'm using can be found on this page. Installing the *.deb files and setting up the printer doesn't work. I can reinstall the system but this will wipe all configurations. |
Is your printer not working at all, or working partially?
|
Also, what is the model of the specific printer?
|
I could not find a listing for that specific model (Imageclass MF4150 based on the link) at the Open Printing Database.
There's a thread at LinuxForums dot org that might offer some hope. Canon is not well-known for its support of Linux. |
I've done a reinstall to try to correct this but that didn't work. I can still print from in Windows although that's not an optimal solution - I've just submitted a bug report having to do with use of this driver to www.cups.org.
I'd like to know if there is some possible workaround for this. New details: I'm now running Debian 7.2.0 64 bit, Linux version 3.2.0-4-amd64. Thanks |
