I installed driver Canon TR4500 series Ver.5.70 and can print a Self Test Page from Linux Mint 19.2, but not a Test Page.
I found that Software Update had me replace cnijfilter2 version 5.70-1 with 5.90-1+1804+1ubuntu1
Here is the terminal output from the installation:
$ sudo ./install.sh

Greetings,
Fedora and Ubuntu appear to be the only distros oficially supported.
While other Linux distro might/could work, there is no guarantee of support or function.
