However, I still cannot figure out how to configure SANE with the device serial number as opposed to a dynamic IP which changes each time I cycle the power on my printer.
My CUPS configuration, which was configured using Canon's Asian MX470 series driver, works flawlessly by utilizing the cnijbe:// protocol. Sadly, I don't have much to provide in way of an answer other than to deal with ScanGearMP because SANE can't easily be configured for a dynamic IP address. I ran a test print that printed a test page with Grayscale, Red, Green, Blue, Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, and Black colors with an ubuntu header. If dpkg does not work then go into a command line and use the cd tool to change directory into the path were your unpacked files are, look for the install.sh file: deb packages in the same way as the printer installers above: Go to Application Menu > Printing > and search for a MG5200 printer if it has not been automatically added by now. deb packages by going into the folder and double clicking on the right. Unpack the tar.gz files by right clicking on them and selecting 'unpack here' The below is copied from but I have adapted it slightly to be easier to follow.ĭownload the driver files to Downloads folder: See further details in the scanner question linked above. The scanner seems to be recognized by Canon's scangearmp but not by Ubuntu's built-in simple scanner app that I much prefer.How to get scanning to work! (I will put a link here to a solution when I figure it out! There seems to be at least one intimidating method for experts.).The instructions worked: I now have a fully working printer with color and duplex! For B&W printing, follow Dahzler's answer. I googled and found the instructions included below.
