Printers campatible with Linux?

[LinuxBomber]

Well I have a canon i250 printer and I can't get it to work with Linux. Any ideas from where I can get the drivers or something?

When you plug in the printer what happens? When you try to print a document or something no printers are found?

How are you setting up the printer? You should be able to use a generic type driver.

What Linux are you in? Some have custom apps to install printers.

but you should also be able to use a generic type driver to.

If you do end up needing a driver you should be able to get one here

Canon is usually pretty good about using generic printer languages (UNLIKE LEXMARK!!! DIE LEXMARK DIE!!)

[TcM]

Lol. What is wrong with lexmark? And what do you mean by 'generic printer languages'? Do you mean drivers?

Have you tried their website? They might have a driver pack for Linux there.
