Public bug reported:
with ubuntu 19.10, my printer was working fine.
after upgrade to 20.04, cups cannot find the correct driver and install a
generic text only driver.
now, to be able to print pictures and pdf's, I only have 2 solutions:
- boot windows 10 (through my grub multiboot)
- boot an ubuntu 19.10 iso file (through grub -> loop) --> ubuntu 19.10 iso (it
still works fine)
the linux 64 driver is not available any more on canon site (only
windows and mac)
please indicate driver location and installation instructions. thanks
