Networked Canon MP640 on Fedora 17 (64 bit)
Addendum: This has been "working" for a long time but ... often the printer would get "stuck". I noticed that in the CUPS interface the default paper size was set to A4. I changed that to US Letter and the reliability improved considerably. Most info I got from this Ubuntu Board - I don't have too much here that adds to that but anyways .... Get the Canon Print Driver from here: http://software.canon-europe.com/products/0010757.asp Specify Linux, English, and choose the RPM version. This turns out to be a 32-bit driver which seems to work fine on my 64-bit system. What gets downloaded is MP640_rpm_driver_pack.tar So first we need to tar xvf MP640_rpm_driver_pack.tar The tarball contains another tarball (weird but that's how they did it). So next need to tar zxvf cnijfilter-mp640series-3.20-1-i386...
