How to Manually Install Printer Drivers on Linux OS

Apart from the two operating systems that we have mentioned above, the next step is to manually install drivers on devices that use an operating system such as Linux.

1. Open terminal

The first step is to make sure you are connected to the internet, what we have to do is add additional repositories to the list of repositories in our system, in the following way,

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:/canon-trunk

Then update your system so that the repo we added earlier can work on the system, by writing the command sudo apt-get update

2. Download the libtiff4 library

libtiff4 is just an additional library so that the system can run the printer driver that we installed properly.

If you have installed the library with the following command

For 32-bit systems

sudo dpkg -i libtiff4_3.9.7-2ubuntu1_i386.deb

For 64-bit systems

sudo dpkg -i libtiff4_3.9.7-2ubuntu1_amd64.deb

Several experiments produced an error message after installing the package because the library is a dependency, in other words, the library requires additional libraries, to solve this, just write the following command

sudo apt-get -f install

Make sure there are no error messages.

If so, just install the driver with the command, sudo apt-get install cnijfilter-ip1800series

For example, we use an IP1800 printer, but if you want to install a driver for another version, just change the value to 100 in the command above according to the version you want to install.

That’s how you can install Canon imageCLASS MF3010 drivers manually on your devices which may be using one of the operating systems that we mentioned above.
