trying last night with my home setup this gave an "unable to read
from system/"<can't remember full path>"/cannon/i250.ppd" after the
job spooled and then the job got trashed automatically.
ran printer setup repair utility and re installed drivers and retried
the advanced setup still with no joy.
Can still print to my laser printer just fine but hey this is the 21
st century and colour printing would be nice :)

Canon say that the driver was for OS10.2 - they haven't produced
an OS10.3 driver yet. Does anyone know if I am likely to solve this
using Gimp or CUPS, or do I just have to wait for Canon to produce
an appropriate driver? If anyone has solved this problem before,
please email me off-list, with enough info to get me started. I've
got into the CUPS interface, but can't see how to set up an
interface to the printer.
To add a printer using GIMP, hold down the Option key while choosing
Printers > Add printer... in Printer Setup Utility. Scroll down to
Advances in the popup menu which appears in the Sheet. Choose USB
Printer and see if the i250 is detected. If so, click the "Add"
button.
If you get no joy from this, you'll have to keep an eye on
<http://sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php?forum_id=4359>, or perhaps
register and ask the question there.
