Canon also supports this driver on i686 and MIPS64 .

IF

you run archlinux (or something close to it) on such a processor

AND have a supported printer

AND are willing to help test necessary adjustments

THEN please send me an email.

The printers supported by this package are often networked.

problems can be in the cnrdrvcups-lb driver, but also with authentication over smb, vpn settings etc .

Troubleshooting those is often very hard.

Archlinux and derivatives are not supported by canon. Use whatever works for you, even if that means using canon drivers in a VM that runs a supported distro .

There are proprietary parts in the code that require older versions. libjpeg-turbo is too new for those.

Note that the proprietary code is updated by canon , just slowly.

Please test with libjpeg-turbo and report your findings.

Same question as kbipinkumar: Is libjpeg6-turbo needed? If libjpeg-turbo from [extra] does not work, do you know why?

Worked for me on an iR-ADV C5860i using Arch 6.17.9 - Thanks!

@kbipinkumar : I have both installed libjpeg-turbo 3.1.2-1 libjpeg6-turbo 1.5.3-3

kbipinkumar commented on 2025-12-30 18:09 (UTC)

is libjpeg6-turbo a hard requirement to build the package? is it incompatible with libjpeg-turbo from arch repo?

Sadly, the latest version does not work either. I still get the error message on the printer (translated from German "Could not execute print job because of unsupported data.").

Lone_Wolf commented on 2025-06-19 07:09 (UTC)

Thanks, seems I forgot to regenerate it.

Fixed.

pkgrel in .SRCINFO is 0.1 instead of 1.

If you dig into details (more details > file details) you'll see that the latest driver version ends with 3 while the version system ends with 1.

Canon often does minor updates that only change the last digit which isn't shown clearly on the webpages.

Package has been updated to 6.10.1.03 .

gtk3 has been moved from from optional to depends array as it's now needed by 2 components instead of 1.

Also some parts of the code require libxml2-legacy while other parts need latest libxml2, Both are now in depends array.

It's an imageRUNNER ADVANCE C5235i, according to their website driver v6.10 (the latest) should still support that model.
