Hello.
I'm writing this email because I have a problem with my printer and I
really want to be able to use it on a linux machine and not rely on a
virtual machine.

So, the drivers of this printer were provided by Canon's official website
until some months ago, when it figured as 'not available'. I have to say
that, before the drivers became unavailable, I tried installing them and
running them, but as the driver was outdated by almost 10 YEARS, it was
unable to work with the new dependencies.

I just want to know if there is some progress with this printer being made
to being included on the list of compatible drivers with gutenprint. If
not, I'm willing to collaborate with anything needed (I don't have any idea
but I'd like to learn).

Thanks a lot, I'm waiting for your response.
