| Post subject: | Install Canon Printer |
How can I find and install Canon PIXMA MG2450 paquets ? I've searched on Ubuntu web site but no result. Edit : I've found... and install after more than 5 hour of battle, using Terminal, Ubuntu forums and some craches and non-desired reboots. The most difficult was to activate the scan function in Simple Scan. Hint : Use MG 2400 printer type and Debian format. This printer was a gift, but next time, for my boat, it will be another Brand than Canon because without Internet, no way to find drivers on the CD. |

I've not spent as much time looking at this problem as you, but I did find this https://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic. ... 1&t=186809 I'm told the 'normal' scan drivers don't work, and this is a work around. |

OK, but as Eduardo posted, no notification : When you install the canon printer driver with its installer (./install.sh) first, before you can register the printer, mint has installed it with its gutenprint driver, you only have the notification. In the manuals, they say that "if a window that prompts you to add a printer is automatically displayed when you connect the machine, cancel the window by closing it." And for me, not experienced as you with Ubuntu, it was a long time to solve this installation. |
