Its a Canon MP140 printer scanner, I have download the linux compatible driver from Canon but if using the command with recommended sudo dpkg -i cnijfilter-common_2.80- x_i386.deb I get the error...
dpkg: error processing cnijfilter-common_2.80- (--install):
cannot access archive: No such file or directory
dpkg: error processing x_i386.deb (--install):
cannot access archive: No such file or directory
Errors were encountered while processing:
cnijfilter-common_2.80-
x_i386.deb
Unfortunately this needs to be installed before the printer specific driver so can't get any further. I have also tried just running the deb file with Gdebi and it fails something to do with dependencies and libcupsys 2 I then run sudo apt-get install -f to remove broken file.
Problem is I can't find libcupsys2 in the synaptics list to install so not sure where to go next.

Q. Are you running the 32bit version or the 64bit version?
Q. What release 9.10 or 8.04LTS or a different one.
A quick google returns <a href="http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=841282"> this</a> web site

I'm running 32bit 9.10 I have just downloaded the libcupsys from here http://packages.ubuntu.com/jaunty/all/libcupsys2/download and the two deb fils have now installed.
Tried updating to make sure they are the latest version but when I print from a tiff nothing happens then if I try print test page it says cup operation client operation format not supported, in office just says print error.
