CentOS 5 Hardware :: How To Install Canon Mp 160 Driver
May 8, 2009
As I try to install the driver for canon mp 160 driver, I realize that canon dun't open their drivers to open source. code...
I should follow something similar to http://forums.fedoraforum.org/archive/index.php/t-144423.html, right? i.e. download the rpms and rpm -Uvh in the same directory, right?
Does anyone have an idea of where i can find a driver for this printer? The system does not have one and if I try a driver for say the PIXMA MP220 which is CUPS + Gutenprint v5.2.4 [en] (actually, all the PIXMA drivers are that one) and I print the printer seems like it receives some command but nothing else happens. The printer says 'Printing from PC' and then goes back to the main screen.
i am running T43 Thinkpad box with Ubuntu 11.04. we have a canon network printer model i-SENSYS MF4570dn printer, and i am trying to install the UFR II driver which i downloaded from canon website. the problem i am facing is that when i install the driver with gdebi i receive error message saying: Dependency is not satisfiable: gs-esp.i tried to install ge-eps but it is not part of the repository for 11.04
I just bought a Canon MF4370dn printer. It comes with Windows drivers on a cd. I was able to configure it for Windows 7 but not for Linux. Where can I get a Linux (Fedora 13) driver?
I have done a fresh install of Ubuntu 8.04 on my partners desktop PC and am attempting to get her printer working, so far no luck. Ubuntu does not list a specific driver for this printer in 8.04 Printer is a Canon laserjet model L1112E according to the label on the printer itself but the printed instruction leaflet calls it a LBP 3000.Canon website offers a linux driver for lbp3000.
I recently upgraded (fresh installed) from OpenSUSE 10.3 to OpenSUSE 11.3. One thing I noticed missing was support for my Canon MP600 printer. Searching around, I found a solution on a Finnish OpenSUSE support page (which I translated with Google): Canon MP600 ei asennu
Here's the fix: 1. Download file Linux_Print_Filterv270.tgz from Canon Print Filter for Linux (rpm) 2. Unpack with: tar xvzf Linux_Print_Filterv270.tgz (this also has support for other printers, including MP610, MP510, IP3300, and IP4300). 3. Install cnijfilter-common-2.70-2.src.rpm 4. Install cnijfilter-mp600-2.70-2.i386.rpm
This errors out with missing dependencies: # rpm -Uvh cnijfilter-mp600-2.70-2.i386.rpm error: Failed dependencies: libgdk-1.2.so.0 is needed by cnijfilter-mp600-2.70-2.i386 libglib-1.2.so.0 is needed by cnijfilter-mp600-2.70-2.i386 libgmodule-1.2.so.0 is needed by cnijfilter-mp600-2.70-2.i386 libgtk-1.2.so.0 is needed by cnijfilter-mp600-2.70-2.i386 libpng.so.3 is needed by cnijfilter-mp600-2.70-2.i386 libxml.so.1 is needed by cnijfilter-mp600-2.70-2.i386
5. I forced the installation using zipper install cnijfilter-mp600-2.70-2.i386.rpm Then select option "2" (break dependencies): Solution 2: break cnijfilter-mp600 by ignoring some of its dependencies Choose from above solutions by number or cancel [1/2/c] (c): 2 and it installs perfectly.
6. If you're using 64-bit openSUSE Linux (as I am), you need to copy the print filters: mkdir -p /usr/lib64/cups/filter && cp -p /usr/lib/cups/filter/* /usr/lib64/cups/filter
7. Install the printer as usual. I selected the MP610 CUPS+Gutenprintv5.2.4 simplified driver for my MP600 and printed a test page. The MP610 drivers work for MP600. There are about 4 of them, and I didn't try the others, but my guess is they will work also.
When I try to instal the rpm I downloaded from canons support website after authentication the install process fails with the following error report: [PK_TMP_DIR|dir:///var/tmp/TmpDir.kLgXId] Repository already exists.
I believe the packages I download (cnijfilter-common-3.40-1.i386.rpm and cnijfilter-mp250series-3.40-1.i386.rpm) are fine--not corrupted.
I am having a Canon 3108B printer But no driver/rpms for my fedora 9. I can going to install fedora 12. Can i download driver for this printer also? if so from Where?
Many have suggested that since Canon does not offer a Linux driver for the MX310, one could use the driver for the MP150. I tried that but found the results very sketchy. After a bit of digging, I found a driver from Canon for the MX340 which works extremely well for the MX310 and allows much better configuration. It wasn't easy to find, so here's the URL in case you want to try for yourself: [URL]
The package (located in the tar file) that worked for me is cnijfilter-mx340series-3.30-1-i386-rpm. Good luck!
1st. I still haven't got a reliable working printer driver direct on linux.
2nd. I am currently using the driver via smb to a windows box.
Okay there is no x86_64 driver for the capt drivers, that I could find. But you can download the standard linux drivers, which also contain the source.
The easiest way to get a 64bit driver is to unpack the drivers.
You will find a directory Src. In there are two source packages.
Copy both to /usr/src/packages/SOURCE
unpack both in a temporary directory.
I can't say which other packages you need to compile and build all of this, but you will need the c++ compilers, and various -devel packages. I would just add them via yast as you go along.
Anyway off to work out how to get this working directly on linux reliably.
I am running Lucid 64bit on my laptop and been trying to install a canon printer driver LBP3200 on it. There are some comprehensive tutorials that I have been following and they worked on my desktop. However the last thing I have to do is
Code: sudo update-rc.d ccpd defaults 50 which gives me the error
Code: update-rc.d: warning: /etc/init.d/ccpd missing LSB information update-rc.d: see [URL] System start/stop links for /etc/init.d/ccpd already exist.
I checked in /etc and I do not have the rc.d dir! I have rc0.d through to rc6.d and rcS.d dir, but no rc.d one. Is this normal? and if so how can I get the correct file to start/stop the ccpd daemon for the printer? At the moment the print command brings up the printer icon for about ten seconds and then it disappears and nothing happens.
I'm using Ubuntu Lucid Lynx 10:04 64 bit, with kernel 2.6.32-24-generic, and want to use my printer Canon iP1880. I've tried looking on the internet and found: the use of 32 bits drivers for Linux on Linux 64-bit platforms. I've followed the procedure given but still failed to run the printer properly. There may still be the wrong procedure that I did, could you help me again to repeat what procedures I need to do, till now,I still don't know how to uninstalling that drivers? Are there other ways that may be successful so I can use my printer, if I practice?
Did some one solved the problem how to install Laser Printer Canon LBP2900 at Squeeze? The driver (version 2.20; in the documentation stays that they were tested some of previous versions at Debian 5.04 or like) I found at the Canon's site doesn't wish to be installed at Squeeze, but somehow I succeeded at Ubuntu 10.04 and Ubuntu 10.10...
I have downloaded all drivers from canon website for linux or Ubuntu . My computer find this printer which suppose to be the right one but nothing happen ? usb://Canon/iP2600%20series. do I need more drivers or files to work in Ubuntu ?
My canon mf 4018 could not print in Centos 5.5 What I did before: I chose Administration/printing and there I tried to add new printer. Unfortunately, I could not find my model of the printer in that list. I used also official canon site to find a driver for Centos 5.5.
When I execute the make command, I get the following warning: WARNING: "try_to_del_timer_sync" [/home/bill/XFiDrv_Linux_Public_US_1.00/ctxfi.ko] undefined! I opened up ctxfi.ko and tried to search for "try_to_del_timer_sync" and found nothing.
in order to using the SR-IOV, according the guide HOW_SRIOV [Moderator edit: fixed link.]but i can't got the VFs.so i try to compile the driver :igb-2.4.13 and igbvf1.0.7.but i failed to install them.when i make install the igb-2.4.13 i got the errormsg:root@localhost src]# make installakefile:106: *** Linux kernel source not configured - missing version header file‚[root@localhost src]# i alreadly installed the kernel-headers-2.6.18-194.32.1.el5.x86_64.rpm .some system info maybe needed:Information for general problems.

I have just had to install CentOS 5.6 on a family members computer, as they lost there Windows XP key. Anyway, I am needing to install a new nvidia graphics driver. I found a howto on this forum for 5.2 [URL]
We have a process whereby we used a rescuecd and partimage to take a snapshot image of one of our laptops, then we use it to lay down the snapshot on other laptops as requests for them come in. The image was created on an HP (Compaq) 8510, and has always worked laying it down on other 8510s.
So now we get a stack of HP Elitebook 8530s, which will be our new standard. So we're testing how laying down the old 8510 image will work laying it down on the new 8530s. As far as putting down the filesystem image, all looks great. However, we'reseeing the msg "bringing up interface eth0: e1000 device eth0 does not seem to be present, delaying initialization." Which I believe is his way of telling me "sorry, whatever driver you've given me can't drive this ethernet card." And needless to say, ifconfig -a doesn't even show anything on eth0.
I'm thinking (hoping) that if we get and install the proper driver to drive the ethernet adapter that's onboard the 8530, we can get this guy some network connectivity, at which point the rest of the tweaks we need to make should be comparatively easy.
how to get the proper driver and b) how to install it? Keep in mind this machine has no connectivity, so I'll have to sneakernet it over from my laptop to the machine.
I've just installed a network printer, Konica Minolta PagePro 1350W.I am required to install a printer driver, min12xxw%B.I could not find Linux drivers at the K-M website.
I want to select 3 option double-sided,layout 2up,color(grayscale)
Configuring at cups web page [url]
"Inkjet Print Filter Ver.2.70" and "3.0" is as same as "Ver 2.60" In case of using each canon drivers,can't select color option window. And there is no color option on cups page,and system-config-printer. I thought any canon official driver may be no able to apply double-sided option.
Im trying to add the binary NVIDIA-Linux-x86-96.43.14-pkg1.run in my CentOS 5.4 ks.cfg file. The problem is that when you manually run the program it asks you questions and you have to respond with ok if you agree to their licensing terms. I want to be able to include this binary in my kickstart so when my machine boots up for the first time this driver is already installed and I don't have to waste time troubleshooting video issues. Is there anyway I can do this?
