Hi Jonathan,

Since I'm the maintainer of the gutenprint Canon backend, but did not
write and of the support code for the BJC printers, I want to ask a few
more questions:

1. It appears you are using 5.2.9, but the BJC-50 printer driver in
gutenprint 5.2.9 did not work for color, nor does it produce good B/W
prints?


That's right. It worked when I first installed it but quit for some
reason.


"Worked": does that mean it printed in color also?


2. The BJC-85 driver you are now using is not the gutenprint one, but a
different one? What is the exact URL of the print queue now that the
driver is installed?


Not quite sure what you mean. Maybe I should remind here that I'm
running Mac OS X 10.6.8 and not Linux.


Sorry, I meant URI.
The URI has nothing to do with linux, it is determined by CUPS.
Basically, where the heck does the driver come from you are using? The
URI will tell us.
