10.3 Panther with Canon i865

[didde]

Hey all!

Just wanted to know if anyone has been able to get their Canon printer up and running with 10.3 Panther. I installed the drivers available from Canon.com but the printer (i865) still appears to have no drivers available. I would appreciate any help on this!

Thanks!

I don't know if this will help you, but I just read in on MacFixIt.com;

UPDATE: Fix for Canon "i" printers Glenn Carey offers a workaround that restored functionality for his Canon "i" printer, and has also worked for other readers:


Delete all instances of ‘Canon’ off your computer (Go to the Finder, press APPLE and F together and do a search).

Download the driver from the ‘Support’ section of Canon’s website, install it and restart.

Rename: [hard drive name/Library/printers/Canon/BJPrinter/PMs/Canon190PM.plugin to [hard drive name/Library/printers/Canon/BJPrinter/PMs/190PM.plugin

Now go to Printer Setup in Applications/Utilities and click ‘Add’
