Hello All
I have just got myself a Macbook. This is the first time that I've ever used a mac and I must say I love ab LOVE it. The interface is so intuitive and the underlying Darwin/Unix shell is brilliant. There is however a little issue I seem to be having with installing printer drivers. I have a Canon MP600 MF printer. I connect to it via a wireless print server (linksys wps54g). This runs Appletalk so the printer is found on the network. I have downloaded the mac os drivers from the canon website and it installs with no issues. The problem is that I cannot select the driver from the list of installed drivers. The MP600 driver just doesn't show up even after installation/restart. I'm currently using the generic postscript driver and that works but gives limited funtionality. i have tried locating the drivers manually in Library and also under /usr/cups but nothing. I have done a root search for mp600 and it does find db files but no ppds or similar printer drivers. I would appreciate any assistance on this.
thanks
