Canon MP620B printer

[M_D]

I am having troubles in setting up the canon mp620b printer. I do not see this printer listed in draktools. There is the mp610 listed there and I tried that but it does not do anything..

Thanks in advance

uh oh....canon has poor linux support

Perhaps this link might help. It seems to offer support for the mp620 as well.

http://sourceforge.net/projects/mp610linux

If that does not provide enough support, then there is also a reasonably priced commercial solution called Turboprint. I have a Canon MP830 which was not not fully supported when I started using PCLinuxOS 2007 and I used Turboprint. The MP830 is supported in PCLinuxOS 2009, so it is perhaps also a matter of time. Here is the link to Turboprint: http://www.turboprint.info/
