This is what I've tried. Of course, no problem with the Brother HL-1440 attached to the iMac. I can also print from the PC, and the PowerBook.
I attached the Canon to the JetDirect, and was able to get one test page to print from the PC. After that, nothing. I then attached the Canon to the iMac. I thought I had that working, but after one test page from the PC--no go. And, of course, with the Canon attached to the PC, all I've been able to do is print from the PC. I did check the information that came with the Canon, and their website. I agree with you, Darren, good printer, not so good support. I even checked with the printer guy where I bought the printer, but he's not all that technically oriented. I've only had this printer for a couple of months. I think I'll just let it go for awhile. Maybe someone will come up with some gimp drivers for it eventually.
