I am trying to get a Canon IP1600 to print in OpenSuse 12.1. There are ubuntu instructions on the web, that I am trying to adapt http://askubuntu.com/questions/41615/how-to-install-canon-pixma-ip1600 ...
The cups error log is attached. It contains no errors - cups clearly thinks that all is well. I tried using the command it logs from the command line, with a ps file, but that just got a bunch of stuff printed on the console instead of going to the printer. What could be going wrong here?
Probably the simple fact that we bought Canon printers. I'll never buy another. Mine worked fine as long as 11.2 was supported, but only after I located a driver on Canon's UK web site. The box mine came in said Linux
Oops, that was a basic mistake, turned out this printer does work with 12.1. The problem was, I was not in the "lp" group. Once I figured out that that was required for printing support, the printer now happily prints via cups.
