In my this blog post i am showing how to install Canon Printer Driver for Ubuntu 13.10 Saucy, 13.04 Raring, 12.10 Quantal and 12.04 Precise.

There is now a PPA repository which contains official drivers of Canon printers and multifunction devices, included versions 2.20 and newer (2.4, 2.5, 2.6, 2.7, 2.8, 2.9, 3.0, 3.1, 3.2, 3.3, 3.4, 3.5, 3.6, 3.7, 3.8).


To get started, we need to add the PPA repository first by running following 2 commands in terminal (Press Ctrl+Alt+T to open it):


#sudo add-apt-repository ppa:michael-gruz/canon-stable


#sudo apt-get update


After that, find out the package name of your Canon printer in the list below. Then install the package using Synaptic Package Manager (install it in Ubuntu Software Center):


















Or, Install the package via apt-get command by terminal:
