Description Hubert Mercier (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-03-14 09:29:14 UTC
Hi !

I was using this printer for a while, and decided to make it print, even in Linux. So I tried several printer models from foomatic, but I always had problems. So, i tried to write my own ppd file, starting from bj600.ppd. Here is the first version.

It discards the "half-sized or quarter-sized print" problem, but it is limited to 600 dpi resolution, and I still have a problem with the bottom margin. The modifications I made may allow other Canon printers to work too, I don't know.

I also didn't test it with other paper formats, so... any help welcome !

Please submit this upstream to the linuxprinting.org guys so it will get into gentoo with the next version bump, we will not include every single ppd manually
