Hi, I'm new to arch and unable to set up my (USB) Canon printer. I've read quite a large number of threads on the forum about this and suppose my solution is in there somewhere but cups doesn't recognise my printer for some reason. Here's what I've tried: I've installed cups, ghostscript, gsfonts and gutenprint and blacklisted usblp. My printer is picked up by lsusb: Bus 005 Device 003: ID 04a9:1094 Canon, Inc. PIXMA iP3000x Printer and I think it has the right permissions: [jim@daisy ~]$ ls -l /dev/bus/usb/005/003 crw-rw---- 1 root lp 189, 514 2009-11-15 13:44 /dev/bus/usb/005/003 In the web interface when I go to add a printer there are none found. I have set cups logging to debug but there's nothing there that means anything to me. Here is some of the output when I try to find the printer in the web interface: D [15/Nov/2009:13:45:09 +0000] cupsdReadClient: 15 1.1 CUPS-Get-Printers 1 D [15/Nov/2009:13:45:09 +0000] CUPS-Get-Printers D [15/Nov/2009:13:45:09 +0000] CUPS-Get-Printers client-error-not-found: No destinations added.
