I have an imageClass MF4350d printer/scanner/fax. I've tried to install the drivers. The printer is recognized in the system settings, but nothing prints. The scanner is working in simple scan.
I tried following all of the troubleshooting suggestions in this thread with no success
I downloaded this driver.
I downloaded the Linux_UFRII_PrinterDriver_V230_uk_EN from Canon:
Installation:
1st attempt: I installed the CNCUPSMF4350ZK.ppd file in the printer settings and moved the pstoufr2cpca file to
/usr/lib/cups/filter
.2nd attempt: I followed forum advice of installing a fake gs-esp to tell the system that "gs-esp" is PROVIDED by the package "fake-gs-esp"
I then converted the RPM
sudo apt-get install alien
sudo alien -k cndrvcups-common-2.20-1.x86_64.rpm
sudo alien -k cndrvcups-ufr2-uk-2.20-1.x86_64.rpm
I then installed the resulting .deb packages.
Since I'm new to Linux, as much detail as possible in your suggestions would be very appreciated. I am still learning how to use the Terminal. Thank you very much!
