[solved]Re: LBP5050 canon printer

[sebastien]

I finally bought a LBP5000 and thanks to
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HardwareSupportComponentsPrinters/CanonPrinters/Canon_LBP_2900

I got it work PERFECTLY.

I'm amazed how accurate this procedure is.
I love that.
I love this ubuntu linux.
It's a great thing in life.
As soon as I have a bit more money, I donate.
I love this system of users help and this way of finfing solutions to
probems.

Thanks to all of the opensource community.
