@Bruce R -- thanks for the response. I'll just add that this is a regression from a previous install of Ubuntu. I'd have to dig out the old hard disk and boot it to remember which version, exactly, but on a prior version of Ubuntu (I'm thinking was 8.10 or maybe 8.04) libinklevel and and inkbl

I'm having this problem with 9.04, using a Canon i860 printer. I can't get either inkblot or Qink to recognize the printer. I've added my user to the lp group, and that did not help. How is Mtink supposed to help? As far as I can tell, it is for Epson printers only -- so anyone with a Canon or o

Thanks to a different forum member, I have incorporated a suggestion from this Bug Report to make the quite different MTink package work for Ubuntu 8.04.2, 9.04 and LinuxMint 7. I used graphical Synaptic to install mtink then sudo nautilus in Terminal to change the Permissions of /dev/usb/lp0 to

The problem is with permissions to use the printer. if you sudo chmod 777 /dev/usb/lp0 ("/dev/usb/lp0" or where the device is) then inkblot does work. I don't know if this permission will survive printer disconnection or reboot. -- Inkblot Doesn't work for Ubuntu 8.04 https://bugs.launchpad.ne
