Um, yeah.  Looks like that port is quite out of date and has no maintainer.
You can try building and installing the latest gutenprint to see if that
works.  You could also considering requesting maintainership of the port(s).

canon ip4700 and cups

2011-05-24 Thread Jamie Paul Griffin
hello

i'm trying to get my canon ip4700 printer setup with cups. i'm half way there, 
get to add the printer in the web interface but no driver listed. i've 
installed the ports suggested in the handbook section on cups for drivers. it 
lists drivers for most of the ip series except mine which is typical. as along 
shot i downloaded the source from canon for linux and tried to use the ppd file 
that came with but needless to say it didn't work. 

does anyone use this printer on FreeBSD, if you do i'd love to know how you got 
it set up. 


best wishes, 

jamie
