I do not have a Canon printer, but there is an article on the Mandrake club page which might interest you. If you are not a member here is the relevent text "Canon Canon makes some rather cool Color inkjet printers (S600, S800, ..), which produce very fine quality photo printing at affordable price. Both ink and printers are fairly priced, and many people are swearing that the quality of prints on their S* model is at least as good as on Epsons, for a fraction of price. Unfortunately, free drivers for these printers do not match the quality of the drivers offered for HP and Epson models, and the only way to get a photo-quality prints on these printers is by using the "turbo print" drivers. An RPM with turbo-print drivers is available for download on MandrakeClub. Turbo-print drivers are reported to work nicely, but please keep in mind that these drivers are neither "free software", not "propriatery but free of charge": they come as a "shareware", with special conditions for private use." Turbo Print is on the commercial CD's of a Mandrake power pack or may be downloaded for free for personal use (with slightly degraded performance compared to the paid for version) from http://www.turboprint.de/english.html I have heard that it is really good :-) derek
