I have a canon MP280 printer and am unable to print using turboprint, as well as a regular cups using gutenprint drivers or Turboprint drivers or the .ppd files downloaded from Canon's site. When I check the aur most of the packaged drivers are outdated and when I check the bug reports it seems that I am not alone in this respect. A few of the bug reports list something about 64 bit issues, I am also unable to compile some of the files from the Canon tar balls you can get from Canons site. When I check the cups error log file it gives me back end failures and list a few files, when I link the file nothing prints. This also applies to Turbo-print but does not give error messages in that program. Just wanted to know what other options I may need to pursue, the printer works with Debian 32 bit on a net-book, and of course Windows but it would be nice to get it working under Arch. R7h0re4
