I was browsing around for a new printer for someone and found the following gem on Canon UK's support site: "Where can I find Linux or other OS drivers for my printer? Canon only develops drivers for Windows and Macintosh, not for Linux or other OS" Further, if you look for scanners: "The information for scanners is "classified" and will not be distributed, so there is no program for these products." As some of you may know, I have been the happy owner of Canon printers in the past (both with third-party drivers) but not any more. Time for them to wake up and support us. It took people a lot of hard work to support the 4-digit BJ series and there's little interest in Canon's current crop. What's the current best for supported colour inkjets? hp? My current printer is a Samsung that came with a penguin on the box and driver sources, by the way. -- MJR/slef My Opinion Only and possibly not of any group I know.
