Exclamation Canon PIXMA mp210 .ppd file


Hello SysChat,

Here is the deal. I just installed Ubuntu 8.04 LTS and would like to set up a wireless printer on it. There is a spot where i can use the .ppd file to install the printer, by inserting the driver disk shipped with the printer. The only problem is that this printer never came with a driver disk and I have always downloaded the driver. The driver does not have the .ppd file.

So what i need it the .ppd file for a Canon PIXMA MP210 multifunction printer.

Paul,

It's not rocket science to download the drivers from them. Click on the driver package and it will open a new page, scroll down to the bottom where it says's:

Download

I have read and understand the information above, and wish to download the designated software.


Put a tick in the box, and a download link will appear, then click the link to download it...
