It took seconds to download, launch, and see that this program could communicate with my MX882 scanner with ease! It may be worth the $79.95 if you can't get Canon's drivers to work. Before I figured out Canon made drivers for this scanner, I came across a program called VueScan which claimed to support MX880 series printers on Linux via the network without installing any drivers at all. Without XSane support, I can't use familiar programs such as SimpleScan and gscan2pdf.

I'd love to hear comments about whether this is possible and how to do it. I have not yet figure out a way to use the scanner via XSane. You can launch the app from the terminal by typing scangearmp and it is also available within Gimp by selecting File, Create, Scan Gear MP. With the drivers, an app called Scan Gear MP is also installed. Ubuntu will guide you through the installation. Inside the resulting scangearmp-mx880series-1.70-1-deb/packages directory, locate and double click scangearmp-common_1.70-1_b and scangearmp-mx880series_1.70-1_b in that order.

Finish entering your printer Name, Description, and Location. After a few seconds, you should see a Canon MX880 printer show up under Network Printer. From Printing window that opens, select Add. From Ubuntu's menu, select: System, Administration, then Printing.

The package management system cannot be identified. When I ran it, I got an error: An error occurred. Note: The guide that came with this driver asks you to run the install.sh program, but it didn't work for me. Inside the resulting cnijfilter-mx880series-3.50-1-deb/packages directory, locate and double click cnijfilter-common_3.50-1_b and cnijfilter-mx880series_3.50-1_b in that order.

I'll tell you how to download and install them. They are not easy to find if you live in the US since they're only available on European and Asian Canon websites. Instead of using software that comes on a CD with the printer, you'll have to download and install drivers yourself. Ich poste hier die Anleitung von Ken's Blog die für die gesamte MX880 Series funktioniert: Da ich hier in diesem tollen Forum leider keine Hilfe dazu gefunden habe, möchte ich hier der erste sein der Hilfestellung zum richtigen Installieren des Canon PIXMA MX885 gibt.
