Canon appears to have added i686 , ARM Aarch64 and MIPS64 processor support since Version 5.30 .

A quick peek indicates that the PKGBUILD will need adjustments to work on those other architectures.

If you do run archlinux (or something close to it) on such a processor, have a supported printer and are willing to help test the adjustments, send me an email.

On some systems printing fails while a component of this driver consumes 100% CPU . SmashedSqwurl figured out this appears to be related to differences between archlinux jbigkit and debian jbigkit.

A workaround is to install https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/libjbig-shared/ .

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 .

Main difference between 3.70 and 5.x versions :

3.70 has 64-bit & 32-bit code and needs to be built as a multilib application. Also it includes proprietary binaries from canon.

5.x is pure 64-bit and more parts of it are opensource.

People coming from cndrvcups-lb / cndrvcups-common-lb or cndrvcups-lb-bin :

You will have to start afresh.

remove the 3.70 versions and created printer definitions in cups
build this package and install
recreate your printer definitions

html documentation from canon is in /usr/share/doc/cnrdrvcups-lb

Hi all, as of today, this package is asking me for signature:

==> Signing package(s)... ==> WARNING: Failed to sign package file cnrdrvcups-lb-5.10-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz.

I don't know where to look for it.

@mikaelu : same kernel on my side but using KDE. I have libjpeg installed, do you have it as well ? I am pointing that out because with Opensuse, libjpeg has made a difference ; in addition to its "turbo" version.

Don't know if this helps, but I have a newer Arch (Plasma 5) and three older Manjaros (two Plasma 5, one XFCE) in my household, and after installing libjpeg6-turbo, they're all working with the 5.10 driver.

This driver still can't print duplex short edge, by the way.

mikaelu commented on 2020-03-12 13:57 (UTC)

@squid-f : Kernel 5.4.23-1-MANJARO, desktop Cinnamon and no current updates. AUR support enabled (but not for updates) It was installed yesterday

squid-f commented on 2020-03-12 13:44 (UTC)

@mikaelu : what is your kernel version and what is your desktop (KDE, XFCE,...) ? Are you up to date on the system update ? I am trying to understand which dependency you might be lacking.

mikaelu commented on 2020-03-12 07:58 (UTC)

I have a recent Manjaro install and 5.10-1 After installing libjpeg6-turbo 2.0.4-1 the process cnpkmoduleufr2r still hangs

vargagab commented on 2020-03-06 17:17 (UTC)

@squid-f: that was the solution by me too. But interestingly at my college the libjpeg6-turbo is not installed, but the printer works...

squid-f commented on 2020-03-01 13:04 (UTC)

Hi all. By digging into the installation script, I noticed an optional dependency called libjpeg6-turbo which was not installed with my system. I just installed it and, now, my i-sensys MF633Cdw works with this driver version ; no more cnpkmoduleufr2r stalling. Or is it the big recent Manjaro update which has unlocked something ? I am not able to state as I just decided to spend sometime on it and I haven't retested before installing libjpeg6-turbo... Then, if someone tries to install libjpeg6-turbo and it starts to work as well, we will have the answer ;-)

sez11a commented on 2020-02-26 22:25 (UTC)

I can confirm this one hangs (the process is cnpkmoduleufr2r), but the 3.70 version does not.
