[ubuntu-uk] Printing in Ubuntu

[Pete Stean]

Hmm, don't know where you're looking but the Pixma IP3000 is supported
m8 - it was a real frig to get it to work this time last year but I
have no probs with mine now (running Gutsy Beta here).

***Note to self, get a HP next time (I installed Ubuntu Feisty on my
flatmate's PC recently and his HP all-in-one printer/scanner/copier
worked after about 3 mouse clicks!)***
