Picked this printer up mainly for the wife and her work, but I'd also love to use it without having to resort to a Windows VM.  I extracted the PPD for both Windows and Mac to poke at it, but it references a few programs that aren't supported on Linux.

I've looked at Turbo Print - https://turboprint.info/ - and I certainly don't mind paying for a driver if it fills the need I have.  I know the Pro-300 is pretty new, so I'm wondering if anyone on the list has either:

* Used the Turbo Print driver for the Canon imageprograf Pro-1000 with the Pro-300.

* Or used a generic Postcript Level 3, CUPS, or similar driver for it

I may end up contacting the Turbo Print folks to see if they're working on a pro-300 driver, but I figured it couldn't hurt to hit up this list as well. :)

Thanks in advance,

    It looks like this printer supports Ethernet\WiFi connection, so
    there is a possibility you can print directly [1] to it, using IPP
    or another protocol.
