I downloaded a filter (don't really know how it works) and I set it up as I am told to and did whatever was said in the instructions....but the damn thing won't print for me too bad I left my lexmark z52 in Hawaii! that worked so great! If anyone has any idea of anything to make this work please mail luau or me thank you!
Okay I just checked out linuxprinting.org:
http://www.linuxprinting.org/show_printer.cgi?recnum=Canon-S300 So, basically you need to install CUPS and Gimp-Print. What distribution are you running? You can probably get cups from your your distribution, but you'll probably have to get gimp-print from the gimp-print website. --Ray
