Canon is one of the worst brand when it comes to opensource. pstocanonij might just be a wrapper which you can get from a linux rpm and tweak to make it work (I had luck doing that using some linux driver for unsupported Brother printers) -- or it might just be a linux-only binary blob in which case, there's not much hope. When it comes to printing/scanning, I would get the hell away from Canon and Brother -- there are the worst by far. They support Linux the same way NVidia does for its graphic chips... > OpenBSD 5.2 (GENERIC.MP) #368: Wed Aug 1 10:04:49 MDT 2012 > dera...@amd64.openbsd.org:/usr/src/sys/arch/amd64/compile/GENERIC.MP > real mem = 2011496448 (1918MB) > avail mem = 1935638528 (1845MB) > mainbus0 at root > bios0 at mainbus0: SMBIOS rev. 2.4 @ 0xf0e20 (19 entries) > bios0: vendor Hewlett-Packard version "F.07" date 08/09/2007 > bios0: Hewlett-Packard 30D1 > acpi0 at bios0: rev 2 > acpi0: sleep states S0 S3 S4 S5 > acpi0: tables DSDT FACP TCPA SRAT SSDT MCFG HPET APIC BOOT SLIC > acpi0: wakeup devices PCI0(S5) USB0(S0) USB2(S0) Z017(S0) Z018(S0) > MAC0(S5) P2P0(S5) XVR0(S5) XVR1(S5) XVR3(S5) XVR4(S5) XVR5(S5) XVR6(S5) > KBC0(S3) MSE0(S3) > acpitimer0 at acpi0: 3579545 Hz, 24 bits > acpimcfg0 at acpi0 addr 0xe0000000, bus 0-4 > acpihpet0 at acpi0: 25000000 Hz > acpimadt0 at acpi0 addr 0xfee00000: PC-AT compat > cpu0 at mainbus0: apid 0 (boot processor) > cpu0: AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual-Core Processor TK-55, 1800.47 MHz > cpu0: > FPU,VME,DE,PSE,TSC,MSR,PAE,MCE,CX8,APIC,SEP,MTRR,PGE,MCA,CMOV,PAT,PSE36,CFLUSH,MMX,FXSR,SSE,SSE2,HTT,SSE3,CX16,NXE,MMXX,FFXSR,LONG,3DNOW2,3DNOW,LAHF,CMPLEG,SVM,EAPICSP,AMCR8,3DNOWP > cpu0: 64KB 64b/line 2-way I-cache, 64KB 64b/line 2-way D-cache, 256KB > 64b/line 16-way L2 cache > cpu0: ITLB 32 4KB entries fully associative, 8 4MB entries fully > associative > cpu0: DTLB 32 4KB entries fully associative, 8 4MB entries fully > associative > cpu0: apic clock running at 200MHz > cpu1 at mainbus0: apid 1 (application processor) > cpu1: AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual-Core Processor TK-55, 1800.17 MHz > cpu1: > FPU,VME,DE,PSE,TSC,MSR,PAE,MCE,CX8,APIC,SEP,MTRR,PGE,MCA,CMOV,PAT,PSE36,CFLUSH,MMX,FXSR,SSE,SSE2,HTT,SSE3,CX16,NXE,MMXX,FFXSR,LONG,3DNOW2,3DNOW,LAHF,CMPLEG,SVM,EAPICSP,AMCR8,3DNOWP > cpu1: 64KB 64b/line 2-way I-cache, 64KB 64b/line 2-way D-cache, 256KB > 64b/line 16-way L2 cache > cpu1: ITLB 32 4KB entries fully associative, 8 4MB entries fully > associative > cpu1: DTLB 32 4KB entries fully associative, 8 4MB entries fully > associative > ioapic0 at mainbus0: apid 2 pa 0xfec00000, version 11, 24 pins > acpiprt0 at acpi0: bus 0 (PCI0) > acpiprt1 at acpi0: bus 2 (P2P0) > acpiprt2 at acpi0: bus -1 (XVR0) > acpiprt3 at acpi0: bus 4 (XVR1) > acpiprt4 at acpi0: bus 3 (XVR2) > acpiprt5 at acpi0: bus -1 (XVR3) > acpiprt6 at acpi0: bus -1 (XVR4) > acpiprt7 at acpi0: bus -1 (XVR5) > acpiprt8 at acpi0: bus -1 (XVR6) > acpiec0 at acpi0 > acpicpu0 at acpi0: C3, C2, PSS > acpicpu1 at acpi0: PSS > acpitz0 at acpi0acpitz0: THRM: failed to read _CRT > : no critical temperature defined > acpibtn0 at acpi0: SLPB > acpiac0 at acpi0: AC unit online > acpibat0 at acpi0: BAT0 not present > acpibtn1 at acpi0: LID_ > acpibtn2 at acpi0: PWRB > acpivideo0 at acpi0: UVGA > acpivout0 at acpivideo0: LCD_ > cpu0: PowerNow!
