Canon Lbp-1120 on Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy Heron video tutorial

After the upgrade from 7.10 to 8.04 on my primary desktop computer, the printer kept working.

Just for the sake of trying, I’ve installed the printer on my new laptop and recorded the process using Istanbul.

The result is this 10mb video. Hope it helps.

PS

The first couple of tasks (downloading the driver, installing alien, and converting .deb files) are not shown in the video. Also, it took me a while to find my old ccpd file (you can get that file here), sorry about that, I should have prepared better. This was all done in one try.

Old, and still valid instructions (you can see me reading them while configuring the printer in the video), are here.

  5. Thanks again for the instructions. I’ve updated to Hardy 8.04 and my printer seems to work. I used Canon’s newer driver (1.80) instead of the 1.6 (or older), which was tested by them already and was ok according to them.
