installing canon printer driver

Post by alcustom »

I am a new ubuntu user and am trying to install my printer, everything seems to be installing correctly until I get a runtime error,

Program:Z:\media\canon_I\win\driver\x86\drvsetup\setup.exe

The error reads:

The application has requested runtime to terminate in an unusual way

I click OK

Then the program closes!

You can not install printer drivers in wine. Install your printer in
linux instead. This probably involves setting up the printer in cups.

Go to this URL : http://software.canon-europe.com/products/0010891.asp

You will probably find what you need.

If you understand french, and use a wifi multifunction printer, this could help you to use scanner and printer in wireless mode :
