He found the driver for the ip1900 but unfortunately it didn't recognize the
1800.  So, still looking.  I did forward the forum links but I think he's
been there as well.

Hi Rocky:

There is a Linux printer driver database for all printer/scanner available
drivers at:

http://www.linux-drivers.org/printer_scanner.html

I would recommend that your son follow the http://www.UbuntuForms.org. Here
is a thread that will help as Canon does not have any official Linux driver
support for that printer:

http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=980735

There are a lot more articles and help on this forum and there are solutions
for just about anything Ubuntu Linux... It is as good if not better than DBA
Access list for MS Access help. ;-)

HTH
Jim

Dear List:

Noah is running Linux on his laptop and would like to hook up the Canon
Pixma ip1800 printer that's hooked up to his desktop at the moment (running
XP), but cannot find the Linux drivers for it.  

Does anyone have a source for these drivers?

MTIA
