Auswaschbar, the mailing list is open to anyone, but you need to register before sending a message or all your messages are going to be rejected.

I tried, but apparently I'm not allowed to post on that mailinglist.

Thanks, ubuntubang, but I'm not going to update this package unless Auswaschbar, the cndrvcups-capt and cndrvcups-common packages' mantainer, asks for the deletion of those packages in the mailing list.
If he/she keeps updating them, I'll ask for deletion of this package.
So this package is going to stay as it is, at least publicly, till i get some news, sorry.

Do not expect this driver to work in the near future if Canon doesn't release a new version soon. This driver is from 2017 and the GCC environment started deprecating a lot of stuff used by this driver. Please, ask for better Linux support to Canon.
Do not flag this package out of date if there's no new version available. That's bad community behavior. A comment telling about the issue is enough.
If your machine uses the x86_64 arch, the multilib pacman repo will be needed for this driver: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Official_repositories#multilib
For an alternative 100% open source driver although not official by Canon, go to: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/captdriver-git/

Re: driver deprecation - the CUPS creator opened this issue to discuss how to handle old devices: https://github.com/apple/cups/issues/5271
From one of his comments: "Before we drop PPDs, we will be working with developers to create those printer applications (particularly Gutenprint), and will likely end up creating our own printer application (based on the existing ippserver sample code) to support existing PostScript and CUPS raster drivers. So the goal is definitely not to leave people SOL, but rather to plan for a future where we aren't limited by the capabilities of the past."

Now you'll see this warning message: lpadmin: Printer drivers are deprecated and will stop working in a future version of CUPS.
Not sure what this will mean for the future with this driver.
