hi thierry,a late answer: needed some time to sort things out. the canon PIXMA mp220 (printer part) works under sid with cups + gutenprint version 5.0.2 with the driver of the PIXMA mp 150. installing under etch seems impossible without installing dependency packages with possible far-reaching consequences for the functioning of my working horse etch. so i decided not to do that. i gonna try samba or (preferably) the chroot 'jail'.
thanks for your answer, regards,steef
