Installing Canon Printer Driver in Ubuntu 10.04

May 25th, 2010 Karthikeyan C No comments

I bought a Canon LBP2900B printer yesterday and successfully installed it in Ubuntu (10.4).  I had 64 bit Ubuntu installed and hence downloaded the file http://codebin.cotescu.com/canon/lbp_driver/CanonCAPTdriver.tar.gz and executed the command sudo ./canonLBP_install.sh LBP2900 (LBP2900 is same as LBP2900B) after navigating to the directory where i extracted the tar file.

Further details can be found at http://radu.cotescu.com/2010/03/20/how-to-install-canon-lbp-printers-in-ubuntu/

Upgraded to Ubuntu 10.4 LTS

May 1st, 2010 Karthikeyan C No comments

I had Ubuntu 9.10 and upgraded to 10.4. The transition was almost smooth other than the following.

  • NetBeans failed to start because only openjdk’s JRE was available and the JDK could not be found. So used the command sudo apt-get install openjdk-6-jdk to install openjdk’s JDK
