I can't seem to get my Cannon Pixma MX860 to print over wifi.
I've tried:
adding it via the add a new printer dialogue, but only my network laser scanner is found.
going to canon's website for drivers, but there are none; it says to use the ones within my distribution.
installing drivers via PPA, as mentioned here but the michael-gruz/canon repository has no files for saucy.
manually filling in the uri https information, but am unsure if I need to append port numbers and directory locations
- the printer adds okay, and a test page seems to be sent out, but the printer screen goes black and nothing is printed (similar to this problem)
- manually adding the bjnp driver and entering it as a manual uri as specified here, but have the same unknowns (port?, subdirectory(s)?) that i did with html uri addition and auto detect still does not work
What uri formats are vailid for a Canon Pixma MX860?
Also of note: when I print via usb, it tends to mess up the first line of the first page printed on a separate page.
