Canon also supports this driver on i686 and MIPS64 .

IF

you run archlinux (or something close to it) on such a processor

AND have a supported printer

AND are willing to help test necessary adjustments

THEN please send me an email.

The printers supported by this package are often networked.

problems can be in the cnrdrvcups-lb driver, but also with authentication over smb, vpn settings etc .

Troubleshooting those is often very hard.

Archlinux and derivatives are not supported by canon. Use whatever works for you, even if that means using canon drivers in a VM that runs a supported distro .

evaliauka, you probably don't have the base-devel group installed. Check https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Arch_User_Repository#Prerequisites

vargagab, I may have spoken to soon. Could you clarify how at which locations your arch machines are and how they connect to the printers ?

@Lone_Wolf: what kind of network settings do you mean?

I forgot to write: I can print to a HP and a Brother network printer.

@Lane_Wolf, thanks for updating the package. I was still getting same error with newer version, but I managed to fix it by installing pkgconf from core.

Thanks!

Main difference between 3.70 and 5.x versions :

3.70 has 64-bit & 32-bit code and needs to be built as a multilib application. Also it includes proprietary binaries from canon.

5.x is pure 64-bit and more parts of it are opensource.

Lone_Wolf commented on 2020-01-27 22:03 (UTC)

Canon released a new version , package updated to v5.10 .

Sorry for delay with answering comments, i'll answer some here and others in pinned comments.

  • @squid-f fedora tends to make changes to upstream code and spreads them over multiple binary packages. If you can figure out where fedora devs store their equivalent of PKGBUILDS, maybe I can figure out what they do differently.

  • @vargagab sounds like network settings could be causing that. investigating that on aur is very hard, try forum.

  • @evaliauka : try with the 5.10 version I just uploaded.

Fresh install fails with the following error

./configure: line 10242: syntax error near unexpected token `PACKAGE,'
./configure: line 10242: `PKG_CHECK_MODULES(PACKAGE, $pkg_modules)'

Not sure if related, but installation of capt-src fails with the same error. Please help. Thanks!

I have same problem (100% CPU usage on one core and nothing to print), but with all versions (cnrdrvcups-lb 5.00, cnrdrvcups-lb-bin 5.00, cndrvcups-lb 3.70, cnrdrvcups-lb-bin 3.70) on Canon iRC3580. But at my college (Arch linux too) functions like a charm.

Hi, I have installed the driver on fresh manjaro. My printer is canon MF732Cdw. When I try to print something the printer wakes-up, but nothing happens. With htop I see that process cnpkmoduleufr2r eats 100% of one core and it stays like this forever.

edit: The version cndrvcups-lb 3.70-1 works fine.

Please can someone help to solve this problem. Thanks a lot

update...

I read comments below, and have added the cnrdrvcups-lb 5.00-2 and cups now updated its drivers to include the UFRII LT driver... But not printing with that unfortunately...

Instead I selected Canon imageRunner 330s - CUPS+Gutenprint v5.3.3 and it has worked somewhat successfully.
