I'm on a x64 Hardy Heron Setup. I just bought a Canon Pixma MP 145 all in one printer. I need drivers for the system. As of yet, what I've done is, force-installed the 32bit drivers from the deb's provided by Canon here :
http://support-asia.canon-asia.com/E...os%3d%3dLinux& Although this has got the printer working perfectly, the scanner simply doesn't function. Can someone help me out? Also, the link above gives the source to those drivers, but I can't understand what to compile in it. Its got several folders, and several make files. Any help is appreciated.

Re: Canon Printer/Scanner drivers?
hi, thanks for the link, but it doesn't really solve my issue of which part of the whole tarball to compile and install. I do know the usual method to install source, in this case, I don't know what part of the source should I install. Thanks anyways.
P.S ok, I may be missing the point, but incase I'm wrong, please let me know.
