http://forums.opensuse.org – Recently this model printer was moved to the paperweight section of the linux printer database, well this was a correct move for (new Installs of 11.2 ) but , there is a way around this if you have one of these printers and they are great for basic printing in linux. this is not the best way to save a printer but it worked for me and i did not have to go out and replace two printers. The first step is to install SUSE 11.0 and run all of the updates. this will allow the canon drivers to work properly. Second, go to the canon/asia website and retrieve the ip2600 driver for linux. it is a gz file and unzip it to a folder in your documents file. once this is done right click the two separate files and open with install software. once both of these are installed, plug in the 2600 and run yast and set up the printer in the hardware listing. (all you want to do is configure the printer). print a test page and it should have worked. after all the above is done, restart your system and do an update to 11.2 and your printer should be working. this worked for me, and i did not have to replace my printers.. Good Luck. (Distributions)

[ubuntu] About Canon Printers 3 years 32 weeks ago

So my friends who are new to Linux just bought a new printer, a Canon IP3600 because we saw that Canon Europe has a driver for that model. Also this printer has individual ink tanks and so it is easy to refill the cartridges.

I'm trying to setup a Canon ip2600 printer on Ubuntu 12.04.1

I've already got an HP Laserjet 2100M working using HPLIP Toolbox and configuration via http://localhost:631

But the Canon ip2600 printer driver is not listed in http://localhost:631/admin/

If I go into Ubuntu Software Center and try to install cnijfilter-ip2600series I get this popup

I'n new to Ubuntu/Linux and had significant difficulties while attempting to configure my printer to work. The automatic driver pairing wizard which Ubuntu uses to identify and install the appropriate drivers did not find my printer's driver. I managed to get it to print when I manually select the generic configuration and checked the PCL6 configuration.

Hi,

We have 3 computers with windows xp installed and two canon ir2200-ir3300 printer all connected through a router box. Each computer and each printer has ip addresses. It was configured like tcp ip enabled printer inside the local printer option. Each windows system can see both printer with ip and can select them to print.

Now we want to try ubuntu in one of the system.

I'm trying to set up my Canon MP550 printer to an Ubuntu 12.04 64-bit desktop (using Gnome3). But it simply refuses to work!

I have tried installing drivers from the apt repository, and I have tried installing the drivers that I downloaded directly from the canon website using dpkg --force-architecture --force-depends etc...

Both methods install the drivers perfectly fine.
