[opensuse] Canon IP90V printer problem
Have IP90V printer that I have been trying to get to work with SuSE 10.3 with no success. I have installed cnijfilter-common-2.70-1.i386.rpm and cnijfilter-ip90-2.70-1.i386.rpm via yast. When I setup the printer, it sets up fine, then do a test, cups says it is processing, but that goes forever and nothing prints. Tried installing cnijfilter-common-2.70-2.src.rpm which is supposed to be an update, but with yast I get "Following packages haven't been found on the medium: cnijfilter-common" Tried installing with rpmbuild but end up with unitelligible errors, at least to me they are unintelligible. Tried adding the directory wehre the RPM is to the repositories, but that does not work. The instructions from Canon on their site are in Japanese, so they are of no help. Any suggestions on how to get this thing to work are welcome. (I have tried other printer models as suggested on the internet, but none of them print correctly) Art -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Tried installing cnijfilter-common-2.70-2.src.rpm Installing a source rpm just installs the source files in the rpm build

Canon's Linux support is extremely bad. Hope you can figure it out. -- Joe Morris Registered Linux user 231871 running openSUSE 10.3 x86_64 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Yes, I realize that now. This is my first and last canon printer. It works great on the MacBook with USB, but when I put it on network print server, apple does not let you select the driver any more.

Non-existant to actively hostile would be more accurate. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
