It works very well with CUPS and supports all the printers features (Inluding Ink Tank Status etc). I use it on FC1 with two Canon printers (BJC-3000 & S830D). The only small drawback is that you need to register it with $20 EURO's to use the FULL features of the driver. (But it's worth it) Without the registration key, you can still use it, but it's limited. Wolf -- Open WebMail Project (http://openwebmail.org)
