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,

Go here and get the Linux drivers for that printer model...

Canon

I am having trouble downloading this file.

I figured out my problem, so thanks.

What was the fix? other people might find it useful if they have a similar problem...

my problem was that to download the file, i would have to click browse, click exit, then click save to disk.

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...
