Yes, I did.  Could not follow it well enough to do what needs doing.

I think what I need to know is 1) where in the system to copy the files to
(or does it matter) and 2) how to set the file r/lib/cups/filter/pstocanonij
to be owned byroot and have read-only permissions for everyone.  And maybe
3) manually specify the canonmp190.ppd in your printer configuration, but
maybe that will be clear as I go.

thanks!
