I’m in the process of getting a new printer and since I recently (December 2024) switched to Linux it would be nice if it would be Linux compatible. So far I’ve decided on the Canon PIXMA G550 printer but I can’t find anything about it’s compatibility so I figured I would just ask here in the hopes someone might have the same printer or knows someone who has the same printer and can tell me if this printer works with Linux. If all else fails I could still use the printer with my tablet or phone using Canons app but using it with my desktop would be much more comfortable.
I have this printer and it works flawlessly using the proprietary drivers.
When you say proprietary drivers, I assume that means they are only available for x86_64 platform… leaving ARM64/aarch64 devices, like Pi’s and such, out of luck?
Something I’ve experienced with similar printer drivers. Hence the ask.
