Canon MPC printer issues


I have a Canon MPC190 printer. I was wondering if anyone has had any luck getting this or any other MPC printer to work. Or is there a older driver that will work with limited functionality, as at the moment I am printing to pdf and then print it out when I boot up xp. (not the ideal scenario)
Thanks if anyone can help

Just came accross this site that seems to have the drivers for the printer you have

http://www.turboprint.de/turboprint.html

I can't vouch for them as i don't use that printer but they would be worth a go as i don't think any other driver for linux exists for the MPC190.

Cheers

Canon MPC190 linux driver

Hi!

I tried the Turboprint for my MPC190 but till now I had no result.
The printer is not recognized by the Turboprint soft.

Any other idea please?

Thanks
