Package: Debian
Version: 5.0
Debian 5.0 - Canon Pixma iP3500 printing failure
I don't know whether the problem is in the stable distribution of Debian
5.0 or in the Canon distribution of a driver for the Pixma iP3500, but I
was unable to print using the Pixma iP3500 after I installed Debian 5.0
on my Compaq Presario F763NR.
After some debugging, I found that the printer failed to print because
the printer driver looked for the file: /usr/local/bin/cifip3500 and
couldn't find the file because it was actually located
at /usr/bin/cifip3500. Adding a link from /usr/local/bin/cifip3500
to /usr/bin/cifip3500 solved the problem.
I am using Debian 5.0 on a compaq Presario F763NR and I installed the
Canon driver using the Canon files:
cnijfilter-common-2.80-1.i386.rpm which I converted to a .deb file
and using
cnijfilter-ip3500series_2.80-1_i386.deb
I installed Debian 5.0 using the Debian Netinstall iso.
I'm not certain, but when I previously installed "Lenny" prior to the
stable release of 5.0, I did not experience any problem installing and
using the driver for the Canon PIXMA iP3500.

Dear Debian User,
This bug report was submitted against a version of CUPS that is no
longer supported in Debian. Use of our limited, volunteer supported
resources is best served by not keeping around old, hardware-specific
and inactive bugs for longer than desirable, so the report is now being
closed.
You may, of course, wish to review the reported problem. It would be
appreciated if any future investigation could be conducted using the
testing or unstable distributions. If considered necessary, a new bug
report, possibly referencing this one, would be submitted. Please note
there are now separate cups and cups-filters packages.
Thank you for your report.
Regards,
Brian.
