Fully agree. I spent weeks messing around with driver combinations for
my Canon Pixma MP750; finally broke down and bought the Turboprint
license & haven't looked back since. I'm even able to have a networked
Windows Win2KP computer print via my Ubuntu system (using Samba & CUPS)
where the MP750 is connected.

That said, the OP might want to take a look at Wei-Yee Chan's post and
give that a try first.
