Printing to shared Linux printers via CUPS
Authored by: stevevm on Oct 01, '03 08:49:04AM

I spent some time on the weekend trying to do this as well. The printer I'm using is a Canon S820 for which linux does not have a very good driver. So i set up a raw queue on my linux box and i can see it on my iBook. I have the canon drivers installed on the ibook and it will detect and properly use them when i try to access the printer via usb. Unforunately they do not show up in the list of available printer types under Print Centre when trying to configure the raw linux printer. If i select other, it wants me to choose some file, does anyone know what this file is suppose to be?
