The OS is called Ubuntu, not Ubunto.

Did you grab the printer from the Canon Europe site....?

Hi Andrew sorry my mistake for not spelling the name OS name Ubuntu correctley.

1) I did down loaded the driver version 2.40 for the Canon uk website
2) I did follow every set of instructions availabile to me on the forums

So please help me with this driver problem

Regards,

Francois
