Linux and printer drivers
As a result of reading Mac The Knife's recommendation in the "Longest Suicide Note" thread, I decided to give SimplyMEPIS 6.0.1 a trial from the live CD on my XP box.
I was very impressed by the way that it picked up all my internet and wireless network connections and worked flawlessly "out of the box" as the saying goes. Unfortunately, it will not recognise my Canon MP700 printer/scanner/copier. I have visited the Canon download site and they do not seem to offer a Linux driver for this machine.
Can anyone offer a suggestion to overcome this problem?
An alternative source for the driver or a different Linux distro perhaps? All information gratefully received.
