The $25 is only a once off cost. Compared to the standard cups drivers it's worth it. You have better control of the printers features, and you can check the ink tank levels as well (Just like the Canon Windows Drivers). You cannot do that with the standard cups drivers. (And I don't think one ever will). And not to mention, ones documents print where they are supposed to etc, etc. I think that chap did a great job with Turboprint, it's well worth giving a go. Wolf
