Hi to all here-,

 my driver-problems are solved by an alternative way-:writing with ubuntu, printing with xp .some other helpful people on "ubuntuusers.de" tried to help me but i`m not good in writing scripts in the terminal.the only thing i did
right was to open the rpm 270 driver, the 2nd step failed at everytime .now i had upgrated to version 09.04 "jaunty-j." and tried to install canon drivers no more again for months.
thank you for your messages,
all the best from düsseldorf to "launchpad"
greetings mike
