I'm a Linux user and have a Pixma Pro-200. When I bought it I also bought a computer with a Windows 11 duel boot so I could use the printer.
Since then I've been trying to figure out how to use it on Linux, to no avail.
I tried loading my Windows drive the other day and couldn't use it because it was trying to update. Windows forces updates (one reason I don't use it) and I couldn't get around the process in any way.
There's absolutely no way that I'm going to sit and wait for six hours just to have my privacy tweaks undone. The plan now is to nuke that drive and turn it into more storage.
But here's my conundrum:
My very expensive printer is now useless to me. I'm trying to run a printing business and I can't make money with it anymore. Before I replace it, are there any plans whatsoever for Canon to release Linux drivers???
Thanks for any help.
